Just a few drops from the plant's roots can cause paralysis of the cardiac muscles or of the entire respiratory system, resulting in death. Lastly, during the Middle Ages, witches used the wolfsbane in their "flying" potions because of the feelings of dizziness and numbness brought on by its irregular heartbeat side effects, they also used it in other potion to like love potion or "stay away"potion ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.
