Is rotenone more fatal than cyanide?

Answer 1

Hydrocyanic acid is one of the most poisonous substances known and is achieved by dissolving cyanide in a strong acid; the inhalation of its fumes in high concentration will cause almost immediate death. Rotenone is used by biologists to kill germs and bacteria in tests and is very poisonous but I dont believe its as poisonous as cyanide although similar. Since the only source for this information seemed to be suicide assist web sites and fatality was rated by probability cyanide was a definite and rotenone was probable. If this is your goal, I plead with you to talk to someone soon. Nothing is as bad as you think it is in your present state of mind.
