Brief Summary

Poisoning is the deterioration of the body's functions by the ingestion of any substance being toxic to the body or by overdosing a nontoxic substance. Poisoning cases may vary according to the geographical and seasonal characteristics of the region, sociocultural structure of the population, life index and the age groups. Worldwide, intentional self-poisoning (ISP) is the most common form of suicide attempt and the most common method that results in medical hospitalization.
