Sponsor's own description

Introduction: Mushroom poisoning is a significant yet underreported issue in Nepal, particularly in rural areas where wild mushrooms are a vital food source. Poisonous mushrooms, often indistinguishable from edible species, pose severe health risks. Case reports: This case series documents ten patients (6 males, 4 females) aged 19 to 39 from Mustang, Nepal, who developed symptoms of cholinergic toxicity approximately one hour after consuming wild mushrooms collected from a high-altitude region. Common symptoms included blurry vision (80%), vomiting (60%), sweating (50%), and abdominal pain (20%). A notable case involved a 19-year-old female who exhibited severe symptoms, including hypotension, tachycardia, and respiratory distress, requiring atropine therapy. All patients were managed with supportive care, including intravenous fluids and symptomatic treatments, and recovered fully within 12 hours. Keywords: Cholinergic; Muscarinic; Toxidrome; Toxin
