The plant contains tropane alkaloids, which affects the central nervous system, with the major alkaloids being atropine and scopolamine.Alkaloids are related to those found in magic mushrooms, however, magic mushrooms do not cause death even if consumed in a large quantity.Due to Jimsonweed's strong unpleasant odor and taste animals avoid grazing it unless other more desirable forage species are not available. Human poisoning results from sucking the nectar from flowers or consuming the seeds. Poisoning of humans in recent years has been more frequent than livestock poisoning.
