Does curare kill you if swallowed?

Curare is a toxic substance that acts as a neuromuscular blocker, primarily affecting the body's ability to transmit nerve impulses to muscles. If swallowed, it is unlikely to be lethal because it typically requires injection to have its toxic effects. However, ingesting curare can still be dangerous, as it may cause gastrointestinal distress or other health issues. Always seek immediate medical attention if curare is ingested.
