Further information
The barium ion is a muscle poison causing stimulation and then paralysis. The barium ion is a chemical antagonist of potassium, and it appears that the symptoms of barium poisoning are attributable to Ba2+-induced hypokalemia. The effect is probably due to a transfer of K+ from extracellular to intracellular compartments.
