Remind Parents About "Caution Over Convenience" With Med Storage
Medication poisoning in children is still a big problem.
The usual culprits in pediatric poisonings are opioids, iron, and acetaminophen.
But other meds can be a problem. For example, "one pill can kill" with certain blood pressure meds (propranolol, verapamil, etc)...sulfonylureas (gliclazide, glyburide, etc)...and tricyclic antidepressants (amitriptyline, imipramine, etc).
