Hi xxxxxxxxxxx,
Thanks for writing in to us.

I have read through your query in detail.
Please find my observations below.

1. All out and goodnight contain pallethrin which is a poisonous chemical. Any one drinking it can have seizures, heart problem, vomiting, pneumonia, kidney problem among other symptoms.

2. A patient can die from taking pallethrin due to effects on brain and heart.

3. Long term side effects can occur due to effect on brain, heart, lungs, kidneys.

Hope your query is answered.
