Deadly nightshade is a lethal poison.

From the book

Deadly nightshade is a lethal poison. Four drams with mandrake make the Type III Poison Powder, which deals 1-10 points of damage a minute for 5-10 minutes and leaves survivors incapacitated for a full hour. A dram also goes into Black Death, with mandrake, ghoul's tongue and wyvern's tail. It grows in woods and swamps and costs 40 G.P. per dram.
