Many medicines and supplements can look like candy. It can be difficult for young children (and even adults) to tell the difference.

Each day, approximately 100 young children are brought to the emergency room because they got into medicines or supplements left within reach. Protect your child by keeping all medicines, vitamins, and other supplements (including those in gummy form) up and away, out of reach and sight.

Medicine storage safety tips:

Keep medicines in a safe location that is too high for young children to reach or see.

Never leave medicines or supplements out on a kitchen counter or at a sick child's bedside, even if you must give the medicine again in a few hours.

Always relock the safety cap on a medicine bottle. If it has a locking cap that turns, twist it until you can't twist any further or until you hear a "click."

Tell children what medicine is and why you or another trusted caregiver must give it to them.

Never tell children that medicine is candy, even if they don't like to take their medicine.

Remind babysitters, houseguests, and visitors to keep purses, bags, or coats containing medicines up and away and out of sight when they're in your home.

Call Poison Help at 800.222.1222 right away if you think your child might have gotten into a medicine, vitamin, or other supplement (including those in gummy form) even if you are not completely sure.
