Belladonna is better known to most of us as deadly nightshade. It is extremely poisonous and, although it was used in the treatment of several disorders, it was also known to result in accidental poisoning or even death.
It was used in the relief of pain, as in cases of sciatica, rheumatism, bunions and toothache. The plant was also used as diuretic in cases of fluid retention.
