Zinc phosphide is widely used as a rat poison. When it enters the stomach, it gets converted to phosphine gas which is in turn absorbed by the bloodstream. There are no currently available antidotes. If the dosage is large, the person cannot even live for a day. Liver dysfunction is common among these patients. The mortality rate by Zinc phosphide poisoning is relatively high.
