Accidental Medication Overdose

Accidental Medication Overdose

Things to keep in mind

Never take pills or medicines that aren't from your doctor! Some pills or medicines are made only for adults. If a child takes them, they can be badly hurt.

How do you treat it?

Activated charcoal is used to stop the effects of some medicines. It protects your body from the harmful medicines.

What should you do?

Medicines should be kept out of the reach of children so that they do not accidentally take them. Do not take any medicine unless a doctor, your parents, or your teachers tell you that it is okay.

And remember, always ask your doctor!
