If I assist a patient with a case of self-poisoning in Brazil, do I need to report it on the exogenous intoxication form and on the self-harm form at the same time? Or maybe I should only report as a self-harm poisoning?

The law requires the judgement of intent. It is self-inflicted harm is there was suicidal intent. Accidental poisoning would likely fit exogenous intoxication.
Does it give the definitions used on the forms?
