How to cure Dieffenbachia poisoning

Seek medical attention promptly

Potassium salts are usually used for therapeutic diagnosis. 15-25 ml of 10% potassium chloride solution is added to 500 ml of 5% glucose solution and the solution is intravenously dripped over 2 hours under close observation of the heart. If the arrhythmia improves, it indicates poisoning by drugs containing cardiac glycosides.
