Poisonous Plants in NZ Tutu (Bush Shrub) By Sam, Joanna, Kim and Amy

Description of Access  ‘Tutu’ is a shrub, up to 20 feet high. They are of easy access to farm stock  Occurs in open places, costal, forests and close to water ways  Mostly sheep and cattle are affected  Humans can be affected by honey from bees collecting tutu pollen  Apart from pedals, all parts of the shrub are toxic  Responsible for greatest % of stock poising by plants in NZ

Key Clinical Signs  Signs of poisoning include  Vomiting  Dizziness  Excitability  Stupor leading to Convulsions

Antidote  There is no antidote for tutu and ruminates don’t vomit  Key is avoidance and identifying the plant and access

Reduction and Absorption  Prevention of absorption is clinically important in management of toxicites  Absorption is obtain from digesting Tutin, the toxin present in the leave sap and presumably the pollen  Reduce absorption by gastric decontamination

Supportive Therapy  Fluids  Seizure Control  Maintain body Temperature  Control specific signs

Prevention of Future Exposure  Remove source  Prevent access to road sides  Avoid extensive farming  Have a good weed management plan in place
