Title in original script: தலைப்பு இல்லை (விஷ வைத்தியம்)
The manuscript is constituted of a text containing 32 palm leaves which have been classified according to the numbering of verses, as many leaves, partly broken, have no longer a number. The manuscript is in bad condition and very fragile; the leaves damaged by larvae and fungus, are easily breakable; numerous of them are only fragments.
The text, difficult to decipher due to the bad state of the leaves, concerns poison bites for which it describes the symptoms of poisoning and lists the animal species responsible of poisoning: scorpion (tēḷ), golden beetle (āṟupuḷḷi vaṇṭu), centipede (pūrāṉ), garden lizard (palli), dog (nāy), cat (pūṉai) and snakes (pāmpu).
Size of the manuscript: 36,0cm x 3,0cm. The text is composed of 32 palm leaves, numbered (2, 6-8, 10, 12, 16, 19, 30, 2x34, 43-45) and without number (broken leaves). Two additional blank leaves open and close the text. The manuscript is in bad condition and very fragile; the leaves damaged by larvae and fungus, are easily breakable; numerous of them are only fragments.
