The study of poisons and their effects includes detection, measurement, toxicity, fatal dose, and therapy. Medical and legal issues related to substance-induced injury are the focus of forensic toxicology. This study discusses poisonings, their consequences, and forensic investigations. Children are especially susceptible to poisoning from suicide attempts, murders, accidents, and unintended exposures. For profit or revenge, homicidal poisoning occurs. The paper describes toxic symptoms and diagnosing difficulties. Toxin-related gastrointestinal, ophthalmic, and cutaneous disorders, symptoms, and vital signs are included in tables. Skin examination is important for determining poisoning pathways because of cutaneous evidence. Visual impairments, ocular indicators, and poisoning symptoms are given to help identify dangerous chemicals. Poison control centres handle poisoning episodes, provide toxicological information, treatment guidance, public health surveillance, professional consultation, toxicovigilance, emergency response, and quality improvement. The report stresses the need of international collaboration in poison control centre establishment and maintenance. Healthcare professionals and the public need poison information sources, such as databases and apps, to manage poisoning incidents. A complete list of materials is provided. The study concludes by assessing poison exposure and poisoning circumstances, noting the many ways poisons may hurt or kill. The sensitivity of youngsters to even little amounts of narcotics is stressed. The research concludes that poisoning diagnosis is complicated due to the many symptoms and possible misdiagnoses. It emphasises evidence-based knowledge and poison control centres and information sources in managing and preventing poisonings.
