70,000 kids hospitalized for accidental drug poisoning!
A new Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) study found that two-thirds (68.9%) of the 100,340 emergency department visits made in 2008 for accidental ingestion of drugs were made by children aged 5 or younger.
Two-fifths (42.3%) of the visits involved patients aged 2 years-old, and almost one third (29.5%) involved one-year-old patients. The report showed that males accounted for slightly more than half (55.7%) of the emergency department visits for accidental drug ingestion among children aged 5 or younger.
Additionally, the survey indicated that these incidents included drugs that act on the central nervous system (CNS) (40.8%), with the two main CNS drugs being pain relievers (21.1%), and drugs for insomnia and anxiety (11.6%).
