         containing aconite (Kelly, 1990).
        
         Two cases of aconite poisoning following ingestion of herbal
         preparations have been reported.  A 30-year-old man died in
         spite of cardiopulmonary resuscitation for five hours and 40
         minutes, cardiopulmonary bypass for two hours and 47 minutes,
          and insertion of a transvenous pacing electrode (Fatovich,

Bob,
   The site you directed Angie to has no relationship to Homeopathy: it's a scientific descriptor of of the alkaloids in Aconitum Napellus, the plant, which is highly toxic and poisonous to all living organisms.  I was recommending Homeopathy, not herbalism.  You might want to check into Homeopathy: many sites available online.  Hope you can enjoy the possibilities.
