Poisoned

This is the main page whose information applies to the Desktop, Console, and Mobile versions of Terraria.
For the differences of this information on Old-gen console and 3DS, see Legacy:Poisoned.

Poisoned as inflicted by a Dart Trap.

Poisoned is a debuff that prevents health regeneration and causes the afflicted entity to take damage every second for the duration of the debuff. Players are dealt 2 damage per second, whereas enemies are dealt 6 damage per second.

Visually, the debuff causes afflicted entities to gain a green tint, and the player's eyes will squint while they are afflicted.

The debuff can be negated by equipping the Bezoar or its derivatives, or eating/diving into Honey for its regenerative buff.
