food poisnin is very serious!! Most times ti begins 20 to 30 mins and it can go on for 4 o 5 hrs. Symptoms are stomach ake, nausea, hedache and some times muscle contractions. Its wise to take histamine blockers when you suspect food poisoning is taking place and induce vomit. Call your doctor or go to an emergency room.

Symptoms of food poisoning depend on the type of contaminant and the amount eaten. The symptoms can develop rapidly, within 30 minutes, or slowly, worsening over days to weeks. Most of the common contaminants cause nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal cramping. Usually food poisoning is not serious, and the illness runs its course in 24-48 hours.

It can take between an hour and up to 2 days depending on what the actual poisoning is.

Usually the symptoms including, nausea, vomiting, abdominal cramping, and diarrhea, occur within 48 hours from eating the food.Depending on the contaminant, fever and chills, bloody stools, dehydration, and nervous system damage may follow.
If you think you are food poisoned see the doctor, because it can be mild, but sometimes deadly.

Be more specific.
hours for toxins and contaminants. 24-96 hours for most bacteria etc... longer for parasites....
could take weeks to see the effects of some..
ALL of the people above me are STUPID...
Seriously folks.. don't give advice if you don't know.. .Toxoplama gondii can take almost a month... Listeria can take weeks. .
What are your symptoms?
I love reading uneducated answers... if it happens within hours it is usually contamination from sanitizer, or from a toxin forming bacteria... i.e. staph etc.
The symptoms are GENERALLY gastrointestinal sometimes presenting with blood.... others can lead to jaundice even brain cysts..

Could be minutes, could be days...They say it all depends on the dose you were ingesting. I had it once, I knew the moment I fell asleep --- I felt like I was being stabbed in the gut!
