This is a good time to check to see if your home is "poison -proof". Ensure all medications (this means prescription and non-prescription drugs and herbal products), cleaners, and cosmetics, are well out of reach of children. If you have to contact the Poison Control Centre or other emer- gency personnel about a poisoning, be prepared to give the fol- lowing facts: the victim's age and weight, the poison involved and how it was taken (swallowed, .inhaled, spilled on the skin etc.), if the victim has vomited, any. first-aid that has been performed, and how long it would take you to get to the hospital. Poison -prevention in adults centres largely on pharmaceutical and herbal products which if taken in too high a dose can cause toxic- ity problems. In fact, 40% of poisonings involving drugs are due to analgesics and sedative-hypnotic medications. These products can cause confusion and a person may forget that medications have already been taken. i Helping you know how to use medications correctly is a major part of our role.
