has gloss | (noun) toxic condition caused by the ingestion or inhalation of large amounts of nicotine nicotine poisoning |
has gloss | eng: Historically, most cases of Nicotine Poisoning have been the result of its use as an insecticide; however, such use is less frequent now than previously. Sixty milligrams of nicotine has the potential to kill an adult, which is the amount of nicotine in about five cigarettes or half a cigar, if all of the nicotine were absorbed. However, this figure is higher in regular smokers, although not drastically so. Consuming only one cigarette's worth of nicotine is enough to make a toddler severely ill. In some cases children have become poisoned by topical medicinal creams which contain nicotine. |
