Although there are many studies on Datura<\/jats:italic> poisoning, none reported cases in Jordan. This study offers a comprehensive review on D. stramonium<\/jats:italic> ingestion, covering its epidemiology, clinical presentation, and treatment. We aimed to provide better understanding of the factors for Datura<\/jats:italic> ingestion, identify prevention and management strategies, and address research challenges.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Methods<\/jats:title>\n This study adopted a retrospective review design to evaluate the cases of Datura<\/jats:italic> poisoning in Al Karak, province of Jordan during the spring of 2022. Data collected from medical records, toxicology databases, and consultation records were analyzed using descriptive statistics.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n The common symptoms of Datura<\/jats:italic> poisoning included agitation, mydriasis, and tachycardia. The management approaches comprised supportive care, administration of Diazepam for agitation, and, in some cases, neostigmine to counteract anticholinergic effects.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n Understanding the risks associated with D. stramonium<\/jats:italic> poisoning and implementing effective prevention and management strategies are crucial. This study highlights the importance of recognizing Datura<\/jats:italic> poisoning as a potential diagnosis in children presenting with unexplained anticholinergic symptoms or agitation to the emergency room.<\/jats:p>\n
