=== Parasites ===
Poison dart frogs suffer from parasites ranging from helminths to protozoans.<ref>{{Cite journal |last1=Santos |first1=Juan C. |last2=Tarvin |first2=Rebecca D. |last3=O'Connell |first3=Lauren A. |last4=Blackburn |first4=David C. |last5=Coloma |first5=Luis A. |date=2018-08-01 |title=Diversity within diversity: Parasite species richness in poison frogs assessed by transcriptomics |url=https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1055790318300848 |journal=Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution |language=en |volume=125 |pages=40–50 |doi=10.1016/j.ympev.2018.03.015 |pmid=29551526 |s2cid=4948679 |issn=1055-7903|url-access=subscription }}</ref>

=== Diseases ===
Poison dart frogs suffer from chytridiomycosis, which is a deadly disease that is caused by the fungus ''Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis'' (Bd). This infection has been found in frogs from ''Colostethus'' and ''Dendrobates''.<ref>{{Cite journal |last1=Martin H. |first1=Christian |last2=Ibáñez |first2=Roberto |last3=Nothias |first3=Louis-Félix |last4=Caraballo-Rodríguez |first4=Andrés Mauricio |last5=Dorrestein |first5=Pieter C. |last6=Gutiérrez |first6=Marcelino |date=October 2020 |title=Metabolites from Microbes Isolated from the Skin of the Panamanian Rocket Frog ''Colostethus panamansis'' (Anura: Dendrobatidae) |journal=Metabolites |language=en |volume=10 |issue=10 |pages=406 |doi=10.3390/metabo10100406 |issn=2218-1989 |pmc=7601193 |pmid=33065987|doi-access=free }}</ref><ref>{{Cite journal |last1=Courtois |first1=Elodie A. |last2=Pineau |first2=Kevin |last3=Villette |first3=Benoit |last4=Schmeller |first4=Dirk S. |last5=Gaucher |first5=Philippe |date=2012-06-18 |title=Population estimates of ''Dendrobates tinctorius'' (Anura: Dendrobatidae) at three sites in French Guiana and first record of chytrid infection |url=https://www.revistas.usp.br/phyllo/article/view/46205 |journal=Phyllomedusa: Journal of Herpetology |language=en |volume=11 |issue=1 |pages=63–70 |doi=10.11606/issn.2316-9079.v11i1p63-70 |issn=2316-9079|doi-access=free }}</ref>
