Poison durations

The DMG gives the duration of Paralysis & Unconciousness for poisons and the Arms & Equipment guide gives the durations of a few other poisons, but it still doesn't give durations on other poison effects. How do we know the durations on these?

Other poisons (all appear in the Arms & Equpiment Guide pg 37):

Vapid leaf extract (Dazed) - I'm assuming 1 round since the Daze description in the DMG says "typically lasts 1 round".

Messmer paste (Dazzled)

Sleeping weed (Slowed)

Lockjaw (Can't speak) - A&E gave a description but not a duration.

Retch (Nausea)

Brain Dust (Confusion)

One day or until Lesser restored i'd say off the top of my head.
 

Damage doesn't really have a duration, does it? It just exists until it's healed, by whatever means. That's true of both hp and ability damage.
Oops, completely missed the point of the post. ^_^
