Virtual Curbside

In recognition of Poison Prevention Week, this episode of our Poison Control series focuses on practical strategies to prevent pediatric poison exposures. Host Paul Wirkus, MD, FAAP and guest Michael Moss, MD, discuss the importance of safe medication and household product storage, correct medication dosing, and how tools such as pill imprint codes can help identify unknown medications. The conversation also highlights common pitfalls, including the risks of relying on internet searches or AI tools for guidance during a potential poisoning event. Instead, clinicians and families are encouraged to use trusted, expert resources when questions arise.If there is ever a concern about a possible poisoning, contact Poison Control at 1-800-222-1222 for immediate guidance anywhere in the United States.Have a question?
