Food Recall

Young children, older adults, pregnant women, and individuals with underlying heart disease, glaucoma, urinary retention, or neurological conditions may be more vulnerable to the effects of tropane alkaloids. People consuming foods accidentally contaminated with tropane alkaloid–containing plants may also be at increased risk. High exposure may increase the likelihood of severe anticholinergic toxicity and related complications.

Symptoms may include dry mouth, blurred vision, dilated pupils, rapid heartbeat, flushed skin, dizziness, headache, agitation, confusion, and difficulty urinating. Higher exposure may cause hallucinations, disorientation, fever, seizures, or loss of consciousness. Severe poisoning can lead to respiratory failure, coma, or other life-threatening complications.
