Pediatric Medical Toxicology Information
Description
Pediatric medical toxicology is the study of toxic effects of chemicals on infants, children and adolescents. A medical toxicologist studies symptoms, treatments and detection of poisoning. Many substances are toxic only if an excessive amount is ingested, including prescription medication, abused drugs, and household toxins. Drug addiction, chemical poisoning, and abuse of medication all require the expertise of a toxicologist.
