This is a free and confidential service. All local poison control centers in the U.S. use this national number. You should call if you have any questions about poisoning or poison prevention. It does NOT need to be an emergency. You can call for any reason, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Take the container with you to the hospital, if possible.

See National Poison Control center.

• Medicines to relieve pain
• Laxative
• Endoscopy (a tiny camera is put down the throat to look for burns)

If the patient survives past 48 hours, recovery is likely.�
