Don’t Search the Internet—Call Poison Control First

These days, we use the internet to search for answers to almost everything. But if someone is having an emergency because they ingested too many pills or drank something under the kitchen sink, skip the internet and call poison control (800-222-1222). Unless someone is unconscious or having difficulty breathing, you should call poison control before you call 911. The experts on the other end of the line can help you find answers and, more often than not, save you an expensive trip to the emergency room.
