Every year about 60,000 kids go to the er after getting into medication that was left within their reach. So, Consumer Reports is making today its First Ever National clean out your medicine cabinet day. Your medicine cabinet can become a dumping ground for old drugs but with every bottle of pills you keep it raises the risk for accidental poisoning for kids. Those leftover pills are far from harmless. Taking them incorrectly or accidentally could be deadly oreland child in the er. Left over narcotic painkillers are especially dangerous. Prescription sleep aids like ambien and antianxiety medications like xanax are also risky. You really want to make sure medications like these are secure. Either locked away or well hidden just out of kids reach. Overthecounter medicines can also be trouble for kids particularly if they look or taste like candy. A new nationally representative survey by Consumer Reports found that 19 percent of people hadnt cleaned out their medicine cabinet in over three years. To properly dispose of drugs at home, remove any personal information from the bottle first. And mix the drugs with something unappealing like coffee grounds or kitty litter before sealing in a plastic bag and toss into the trash t many police stations have drop boxes or you could take them to drop points on april 29th National Prescription drug take back day. And Consumer Reports urges caregivers to be especially vigilant at keeping drugs out of reach and dont rely on those child safety caps. They are child resistant not child proof. Rick and sharrie.
