Abstract
Cyanide has historically been widely regarded as a highly toxic poison. In the 19th century, cyanide was used by terrorism to poison and manufacture chemical weapons. Due to occasional cyanide leakage incidents, cyanide has reappeared in people’s field of vision. It has developed a great interest in how this poison is viewed and handled. This research describes cyanide in detail in terms of source, history, use, and mechanism of action. At the same time, the relationship between the toxicity and dose of cyanide, the types of diseases caused by cyanide and their signs and symptoms are also explained. In addition, some of the main existing treatments and drugs are introduced, as well as the mechanism and principle of their functioning. The significance of this research lies in the systematic understanding of cyanide, helping people deepen their understanding of its toxicity and treatment, and providing new ideas for the development of cyanide antidotes.
