More than 2 million poisonings are reported each year to the nation’s #poison control centers. According to the American Association of Poison Control Centers, 92% of poisonings happen at home, and 43% of poisonings involve children 5 years of age and under. Prevent poisoning by placing household chemicals out of children’s reach, storing items in their original containers, and reading product labels.
For more information, visit the Texas Poison Control Center Network website at poisoncontrol.org or call your local poison control center through the toll-free Poison Helpline at 1-800-222-1222. Of course, remember when in doubt seek emergency care or call 911.
