Keep medications away from children - Naveed Yaseen - 05-17-2009 04:45 AM
Youngsters seem to get into everything — often things they aren’t supposed to, such as medications.
Your medicine cabinet is full of dangers for young people, so it’s important to keep medications locked away and out of a child’s reach.
The National Safety Council offers these suggestions:
Today’s Health Tips
* Keep all medications in a securely latched medicine cabinet, even if you don’t think your child can reach it.
* Always store medications in containers with child-proof lids, and make sure the containers are securely closed.
* Try not to take medication in front of children, and never act like they are candy or something to play with.
* When you dispose of medications, don’t just throw them in the garbage can. Dispose of them in a way that a child can’t find and swallow them.
