Poison Control gives me the answer before the 'Emergency Room' visit. I have called them so many times it's ridiculous. They ask for my zip and say, 'Oh hi Krystal how are you today?!' I call them 'BEFORE' I need to call them. Very few times have I actually called them during an acutal emergency. I called them when I was pregnant and asked if it was ok to mix certain drugs together. And, I called them today to ask if I could give my 7 year-old an antacid for her upset stomach.
I love Poison Control. If you have a question about ANYTHING I suggest that you call them and they can give you an answer within a few minutes. I let them know when I call that I am calling for a 'Preventative Measure', that it is not an emergency so they don't have to rush to get me an answer.
I call them so much they mailed me a magnet with their number on it. Even though I know their number by heart, and so does my phone :) Here is Poison Controls website as well!
