  • Call 911 Immediately
  • Call poison control
  • Contact a poison control center pending on what they ate/drank, you may want to induce vomiting. Tough lots of poisons they do not advise inducing it, and instead drink milk.
  • contact a poison control center/ hospital emergency ward/ dial 911 immediately....do NOT induce vomiting until you are told whether to or not.
  • Hospital! Now! If you don't KNOW what to do, then standing around wondering WHAT to do is much worse than just putting the kid in the car and taking him/her to where they DO know what to do!
