Pharmacology is a branch of medical science which deals mainly with drug classifications, actions, side effects and therapeutic uses. "Goodman & Gilman's The Pharmacological basis of Therapeutics" describes subject of pharmacology as a broad one that embraces the knowledge of the source, physical and chemical properties, compounding, physiological actions, absorption, fate, excretion and therapeutic uses of drugs.

A usual ingredient of rodenticide, aluminium phosphide is known for its poisoning which happens to be one of the common causes of suicides in India. Signs and symptoms of toxicity with aluminium phosphide are wellknown. Circulatory failure plays an important role in mortality with aluminium phosphide poisoning. Aluminium phosphide poisoning is associated with high mortality as there is no specific antidote available yet. There is a need for correct treatment approach to manage this fatal poisoning. In this retrospective analysis we present a data of forty cases registered at a tertiary care hospital in Mumbai. We developed a multidisciplinary treatment approach to aluminium phosphide poisoning which may help in better patient outcomes. Correct treatment protocol with supportive therapy resulted in better survival in these patients. Hence we propose this aggressive, appropriate management with continuous haemodynamic monitoring and multidisciplinary treatment approach to reduce the mortality in aluminium phosphide poisoning.Keywords
