AB Morbidity  and  mortality  from  childhood  poisoning  have  decreased  in  the  last  few  decades.  This  decrease  can  be  credited  to  the  development  of  poison  control  centers  with  a  sophisticated  poison  management  database,  new  governmental  regulations,  widespread  use  of  child-resistant  enclosures  for  medications,  safer  packaging  for  consumer  products,  public  education  and  anticipatory  guidance,  and  a  growing  understanding  of  the  environmental  and  pharmacologic  foundations  of  toxicology.
