American households have an increased amount of pain relievers and drugs today, compared to 10 years ago. Therefore, it is not surprising that there has also been an increase in accidental child poisoning cases involving the ingestion of drugs and medications. Additionally, children whose parents use and keep medications or drugs in their homes that may be easily accessible to children are at an increased risk of ingesting the drugs and suffering an injury or death as a result. If your child is injured by an medication, you may consider initiating a West Palm Beach accidental poisoning lawsuit.

A manufacturer's duty may include packaging medications in difficult to open bottles and packages to prevent a child from ingesting and poisoning himself or herself. Additionally, manufacturers and sellers of medication should place warning labels regarding the risks to children if they ingest such drugs, as well as poison control hotline numbers in case of ingestion.
