These poisonous/toxic plants are categorized as vi?a (poison) and upavi?a (toxic but not lethal for human health) in Ayurvedic texts and also listed in the schedule-E of Drugs and Cosmetics Act 1940. Jayapala (Croton tiglium) is one among the upavishas and a well-known plant in Indian System of Medicine.
