Aluminium phosphide poisoning
Acute aluminium phosphide poisoning (AAlPP) is a large, though under-reported, problem in the Indian subcontinent. Aluminium phosphide (AlP), which is readily available as a fumigant for stored cereal grains, sold under various brand names such as ''QuickPhos'' and ''Celphos'', is highly toxic, especially when consumed from a freshly opened container. Death results from profound shock, myocarditis and multi-organ failure.〔 Aluminium phosphide has a fatal dose of between . It has been reported to be the most common cause of suicidal death in North India. Several incidents of death in travelers in Thailand and other parts of Southeast Asia may have been caused by aluminum phosphide or chlorpyrifos, an organophosphate insecticide, used in an attempt to kill bedbugs in hotels.
==Mortality rates==
The mortality rates from AAlPP vary from 40 to 80 percent. The actual numbers of cases may be much larger, as less than five percent of those with AAlPP eventually reach a tertiary care center.〔 Since 1992, when aluminium phosphide became freely available in the market, it had, reportedly, overtaken all other forms of deliberate poisoning, such as organophosphorus and barbiturate poisoning, in North India. In a 25-year-long study on 5,933 unnatural deaths in northwest India, aluminium phosphide poisoning was found to be the major cause of death among all cases of poisonings.
