Avoid accidents and keep your medications safe and secure with these tips.
Each year, one in every 150 two-year-olds visits an emergency room for accidental ingestion of a medication.

Medications are meant to make us healthy. Limiting their accessibility from kids, pets, and loved ones helps to keep them that way.
