- Gastrointestinal problems (vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain)
- Neurological problems (tremors, seizures, coma)
- Respiratory problems (difficulty breathing)
- Cardiovascular problems (arhythmias)
- Liver and kidney failure
Symptoms of Black Physalis Poisoning in Dogs:
Symptoms can vary and depend on the amount of the plant ingested. They may include:
- Vomiting

What to Do if Your Dog Ate Black Physalis:
1. Contact Your Veterinarian Immediately:
Seek professional veterinary care immediately, even if your dog is not showing any symptoms.
2. Do Not Induce Vomiting:
Do not attempt to induce vomiting, as this can worsen the absorption of the toxins.
3. Collect a Sample:
If possible, bring a sample of the black physalis that your dog ate to the veterinarian for identification and assessment of toxicity.
4. Provide Activated Charcoal:
Activated charcoal binds to toxins and can help prevent their absorption. Your veterinarian may administer activated charcoal orally or through a stomach tube.

Treatment for black physalis poisoning will depend on your dog's symptoms and may include:
- Intravenous fluids
- Anti-nausea and vomiting medications

- Liver and kidney support
Prognosis:
The prognosis for black physalis poisoning depends on the amount of the plant ingested, the severity of symptoms, and the speed of treatment. With prompt veterinary care, many dogs can make a full recovery. However, some cases may be fatal.
Prevention:
- Keep black physalis plants out of reach of dogs.
- Inspect your yard and remove any black physalis plants.
- Supervise your dog when they are outside, especially in areas where black physalis may be present.
