In reply to Anticholinergic herbs?, posted by linkadge on November 17, 2007, at 20:14:16
Dangerous stuff, but I'm sure you know. In the United States, belladonna (i.e. deadly nightshade), brugmansia, mandrake, black henbane, and datura are all unregulated -- except in some states where maybe a senator's son was found frothing and talking to Evil Elvis as a lamp shade.
I'm not sure what the benefit of using these is, though, if diphenhydramine and the like are available OTC. You lose control over dosage, which is kind of important with anticholinergics.
