Atropa belladonna, commonly known as belladonna or deadly nightshade, is a toxic perennial herbaceous plant in the nightshade family Solanaceae, which also includes tomatoes, potatoes, and eggplant. It is native to Europe, North Africa, and Western Asia. Its distribution extends from Ireland in the west to western Ukraine and the Iranian province of Gilan in the east. It is also naturalized or introduced in some parts of Canada and the United States.

Since 2010, the FDA has issued several warnings about homeopathic teething tablets and gels for infants that contain belladonna. Serious side effects including seizuresbreathing problems, and agitation have been reported in infants taking these products, and some have died. All parts of the plant are poisonous.

Despite known safety concerns, people use belladonna for asthma, the common cold, hemorrhoids, Parkinson’s disease, and many other conditions, but there is no good scientific evidence to support these uses, according to WebMD
