About Toxicology

Toxicology treats poisoning and overdose, including pesticide poisoning, snake bite and medicine overdose. Quick treatment saves lives.

Go to the nearest hospital immediately, bring the container or the snake photograph if safe, do not induce vomiting, and do not apply tourniquets or cut a snake bite. National poison information services can advise.
