Sadly, drugs like opioids made up almost half of those deaths.
Seven children are recovering after recently spending time in the hospital due to overdoses.They believe a seven-year-old child gave the kids his medication.
19 Investigates found on average 31 children under the age of five die in the U.S. every year of unintentional poisonings from products found around your house.But child poisoning deaths have been increasing over the past several years, reaching 43 deaths in 2020.Sadly drugs like opioids, made up almost half of those deaths.
If a child in your house overdoses or gets poisoned by anything, here’s what you need to know, before you get to the emergency room. “They’re going to want to know what it is your child got into. So how many pills might have been in the bottle, and what the strength of the medication was. If it was a household cleaning product, or something along those lines, they’re going to want to know the details of that. So take the product with you,” said Dr. Maneesha Agarwal at Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta.
We found the top five substances accidentally ingested by young children were blood pressure medications, acetaminophen, antidepressants, dietary supplements and bleach.You should call POISON HELP immediately if a child swallows or is exposed to any chemicals.
