Reach out right away for a possible poisoning - even if it was just a minor, unexpected encounter with a medicine, product, creature or plant.
Help is available online with webPOISONCONTROL® or by phone at 1-800-222-1222.
Both options are free, expert, and confidential. Both are available 24/7.
If you use webPOISONCONTROL to get fully-automated, expert help, but find you need additional assistance, don't hesitate to call your poison center at 1-800-222-1222 (US only).
