If you drink the Potion of Poison (1:30/2:00), it will poison you for 1 minute and 30 seconds in Java Edition or 2 minutes in Bedrock Edition (PE, Win10, Xbox One, PS4, Nintendo Switch).

You probably don't want to poison yourself. So, try turning the Potion of Poison (1:30/2:00) into a Splash Potion of Poison (1:30) to throw at another mob. This will poison the mob for 1 minute and 30 seconds.
