Keep purses and diaper bags out of reach of children. Avoid taking medicines in front of children. Young children imitate grown ups. DON'T call medicine candy. Medicines and candy look alike and children cannot tell the difference.
Vitamins are medicine.
Vitamins with iron can be especially poisonous. Keep them locked up and out of reach of children. Be aware of medicines that visitors may bring to your home. Children are curious and may investigate visitor's purses and suitcases. Keep a bottle of activated charcoal, a medicine used to stop the absorption of poison, in your medicine cabinet.
