Cholinergic poisoning characterized by SLUDGE, i.e salivation,lacrimation,urination,defecation,gi upset and emesis, is caused by aminita and organophosphate and carbamate insecticides. It is pharmacologically caused by too much acetylcholine or malfunction in acetylcholinesterase. Atropine, which is an anticholinergic is moving in the right direction. For example the militry supplies soldiers with 2mg atropine autoinjectors for use in chemical warfare. THere may be also meiosis, fasciulations and paralysis, as well as as confusion and seizures. Sounds like poisoning due to ogo seaweed which can cause gi symptoms and/or muscle fasciculations even death.
anticholinergic poisoning characterized by the mnemonic:"mad as a hatter,blind as a bat,red as a beet,hot as a hare, and dry as a bone", is caused by anticholinergic actions such as in atropine, belladonna alkaloids, antihistamines, cogentin, haldol, tricyclics. In contrast to the obtundation in cholinergic crisis look for psychosis and delerium. physostigmine
