Trusted, evidence-based resource to
help you quickly identify, manage, and treat toxicological exposures
Accidental poisonings occur with even the most common and seemingly
harmless substances. In such situations, having instant access to
critical information can save lives. Relied upon in 100% of U.S.
poison control centers, the POISINDEX® System identifies ingredients
for hundreds of thousands of commercial, biological, and pharmaceutical
products. The System links that information directly to management
documents providing data on clinical effects, range of toxicity,
and treatment protocols for exposure. POISINDEX also delivers concise,
essential toxicology data on a single screen to ensure the fastest
access to critical answers.
