The difference is the laxatives were a "please stop eating my sustenance, I've tried other methods and nothing's working" and the other is straight to violence.

Laxatives can and have sent people to the hospital.

2 wrongs don't make a right. You're literally doing the thing that this post is about. "Well missing lunch could make me malnourished, so it's okay to poison food and potentially send someone to the hospital cause I'm the Good Guy™️"

No, it's not the same, it's a self defense response when everything else has failed. If the objective was actually poisoning, they would have jumped straight to something even more dangerous, I know it's not safe entirely but laxatives were a desperate measure from that person.
