Fatal aluminum phosphide poisoning in Tehran-Iran from 2007 to 20100

Conclusion: The results of this study showed the incidence of "rice tablet" poisoning, and its mortality increased since 2007 in spite of the ban. It seems that legislative means alone without other interventions, such as suicide prevention and public education, will not always be able to control or prevent acute intentional poisonings.
