¿Sabía Usted? Guarde en un lugar seguro y administre con seguridad los medicamentos para niños . Durante la temporada de la gripe y de la influenza, muchos padres de familia les dan a sus hijos un calmante para la fiebre, jarabe para la tos y otros medicamentos. Estas medicinas pueden ayudar a aliviar los síntomas de sus hijos, pero si son administrados y guardados inapropiadamente, éstos pueden poner a sus hijos en riesgo. Los niños son mucho más susceptibles que los adultos a los efectos de los medicamentos porque sus cuerpos son más pequeños y todavía siguen en desarrollo. Aún pequeñas cantidades de drogas pueden ser inapropiadas para su metabolismo, de manera que es muy importante seguir las instrucciones del médico y monitorear muy de cerca a los niños que son lo suficientemente grandes como para tomar sus propias medicinas. Asegúrese de que los medicamentos sean guardados apropiadamente, fuera del alcance de los niños. Para obtener más información, visite https://www.nsc.org/home-safety/safety-topics/child-safety/medicine.

DID YOU KNOW .Safely store and administer medications for children During cold and flu season, many parents give their children a fever reducer, cough syrup, and other medications. These medications can help ease your children’s symptoms, but if they’re administered or stored improperly, they could put your children at risk. Children are far more susceptible than adults to the effects of medication, because their bodies are smaller and still developing. Even small amounts of drugs can be difficult for them to metabolize, so it’s critical to follow your doctor’s instructions and to closely monitor children who are old enough to administer their own medication. Make sure medications are stored properly, out of children’s reach. For more information, visit https://www.nsc.org/home-safety/safety-topics/child-safety/medicine.
