Forensic expert: In the case of poisoning, one should avoid any self-treatment of the poisoned person Head of Quality Control Laboratories of the Organization for Forensic Medicine in Israel: A wide variety of drugs can lead to accidental or intentional poisoning, unfortunately, children and the elderly are the most affected by accidental drug poisoning. It is recommended that an informed person in the family supervises the prescription and consumption of medications in the elderly. If there is someone around you with suicidal thoughts and mental injuries, be sure to contact the social emergency system before any irreversible event. Sedatives and sleeping pills, if they are used in an amount higher than the dose prescribed by the doctor or in repeated doses by the person, lead to poisoning, hospitalization and death of people. Do not use any medicine without a doctor's prescription and only on the advice of friends and acquaintances, because the effect of the medicine on different bodies and people is completely different. Chemicals, bleach, all kinds of cleaning agents, etc. stored in kitchen cabinets are very dangerous for children. In some cases we witnessed the poisoning and unfortunately the death of children due to drinking methadone syrup that was kept in the refrigerator and used by the child because of its sweet taste.
