Letting the poisoned person drink a lot of water and repeatedly induce vomiting can reduce the absorption of poisons, while closely observing the patient's consciousness and keeping his respiratory tract unobstructed. If the patient has vomited and the vomit is already clear liquid, drink appropriate amount of milk to protect the gastric mucosa; if bloody fluid is found in the vomit, it indicates that the digestive tract or pharyngeal bleeding may occur, and vomiting should be temporarily stopped.
Ejaculation must be carried out early. If the medication is taken by mistake for more than three or four hours, the medication has entered the intestines, and the vomiting will lose its meaning.

How to avoid family members taking medication by mistake?
For children taking medicine by mistake, any remedy measures are just to make up for it. Parents should focus more on preventing such things from happening.Whether it is because the caregiver has poor safety awareness and has arbitrarily placed medicines, or the caregiver neglects or adjusts the dosage given to the child by himself based on his own experience, these situations that lead to the child taking medicine by mistake can actually be avoided. To avoid children taking medicine by mistake, the following should be done:
The medicine is stored in a relatively high place, the farther away from the child, the better.
Try not to let the child see it when taking medicine, so as not to imitate it.
Parents should read the instructions carefully before giving their children medicine, increase their knowledge of drug use, and pay attention to the dosage form and single dosage.
To prevent adults from taking it by mistake, important drugs that look similar or are easily confused can be marked with obvious marks, so that the takers can identify which drug is at a glance.
If parents find that their child has taken medicine by mistake, they need to immediately pick out the remaining medicine from their child's mouth, collect the bottles, medicine boxes, packaging, instructions, and residues from the child's mistaken medicine, and take them to the hospital.
If the child’s clothes, shoes, etc. are soaked with medicine, take it off immediately to avoid the medicine from being taken from the skin again.
Treatment after taking drugs by mistake
For patients who lose consciousness after taking drugs by mistake, they should pay attention to changes in their pupils, breathing, pulse and blood pressure . If the patient's breathing and heartbeat stops, call 120 immediately and then undergo cardiac, lung and brain resuscitation.
Let the patient lie flat on a hard plane, press the midpoint of the connection between the two nipples, and sink the sternum by 5 to 6cm, 100 to 120 times per minute.
Remove foreign objects in the nasal cavity and mouth in time and open the airway, pinch your nose tightly for mouth-to-mouth artificial respiration, and the ratio of pressing to artificial respiration is 30:2.
After being rescued on the spot, under the close monitoring of medical staff, it is quickly and safely transferred to a nearby hospital or relevant hospital for further rescue and treatment according to the condition.
Early first aid treatment after taking drugs by mistake can reduce the toxic effects of drugs on the body, especially when taking some more corrosive drugs by mistake. If these preliminary treatments are not done and simply waiting to be sent to the hospital will delay treatment. For example, some drugs will corrode the gastrointestinal tract, causing corrosion to the esophagus to become narrow, causing the patient to have difficulty eating . Therefore, early emergency treatment must be taken seriously. After the patient has undergone early emergency treatment, he will be sent to the hospital for emergency treatment immediately. At this time, remember to bring the bottle of medicine or the vomit of the person who took the medicine by mistake for reference by the doctor.
