But, Is it used in making a person to vomit ? Please clarify.
Little bit literature on Strychnos Nux Vomica literature, thought of sharing with you.
Few decades back the seeds were exported to Australia in a large scale – to control Rabbit overpopulation
Used in rat poisoning,
Bitter taste 1 : 4,00,000 strychnine and water proportions can still make the water taste bitter,
To treat mentally ill patients, Improve blood circulation
Used in small quantities by drug addicts for small time pleasures,
Entire tree is poisonous, but the poison is mainly concentrated in the seeds. Sometimes, the grazing cow eats the leaves of this tree, and then the milk of this cow tastes bitter like that of the tree. Then the milk is considered dangerous to humans.
English poet Milton, when these seeds entered London city in 1637.
“That fatal and
perfidious drug
built in the eclipse and
rigged with curses dark”
you provided good information, also I appreciate your quotes on Milton’s poetic view.
Once I read in a book on Indian NTFPs quoting that the name ‘vomica’ does not relates to vomiting.
If any of you like to share more information of this nomenclature origin? The grey disc-shaped seeds of this tree is exported to many nations from Dindigul and Madurai District of Tamil Nadu.
Tamil Name: Yettikaai; Yetti Additional useful information …
Success! – efloraofindia | Google Groups : 10 posts by 7 authors. Attachments (3) what are those seeds of by the way? You mean the gliricidia sepium that you had taken from me? If it is so, I am surprised it sprouts so easily.
The gliricidia sprouted easily enough. This is not the same. Meant to send you a pic. Strychnos nux-vomica L. I believe. … salutes dear … and in general to the group !! I agree with
YES! Nux Vomica. I think, this is a kind of dormancy in seeds. It can be due to hard seed coat which needs to be broken. the treatment can be hot water, acid treatment or rubbing with sand paper. Purpose is to weaken the seed coat. The process is known as scarification. In nature it is brought about by microorganisms or friction. You may try chemical or mechanical scarification to break the dormancy. Nux vomica is enlisted in the top 10 poisonous plants of the world so beware of handling the seeds.
Request for ID – 250211SC1: Perhaps Aegle marmelos? Can this otherwise be a species of Crataeva? – This looks like Strychnos nux-vomica. Three-nerved leaves can be clearly seen.

Strychnos nux-vomica.. sharing 23032011pj1:
It’s flowering time for Strychnos nux-vomica, you can see shiny light green leaves with greenish white flowers, favourite for Malabarpied hornbill. Kaiga is natural habitat for this species and harbours many endemic species of plant. – Hornbills are very fond of Strychnos fruits and have the capability of detoxifying the major alkoloids strychnine and brucine present in these fruit.. really wonderful topic to study.
This is strychnos nux-vomica marathi name Kajra. . Strychnos nux-vomica: Beautiful pics. I had never seen this in flowers. Glistering pics…new to me, I have never seen the plant though I have heard the seeds are poisonous, known as “Kuchla“, I hope I am right..
