Keep a bottle of syrup of ipecac in your medicine cabinet. There is no such thing as a child-proof container. Safety containers are only child-resistant , making them somewhat difficult to open but not impossible. Store all potential poisons out of the reach and sight of children. Keep products like insecticides, drain cleaners and medicines in a locked cabinet.
Children can open drawers as easily as cupboards.
Remove cosmetics, medication and other such items from bedside tables and low drawers. Never let children be the first to open arriving mail or shopping containers. Never leave purses that contain medicines unattended. Never store food and household cleaning products together. Never transfer products like kerosene, gasoline or household cleaning agents to another container, such as a soft drink bottle, cup or bowl that would attract a child or pet.
