Abstract

It’s popular Myth among medical professionals that All Poisonings are unpredictable, unpreventable and unsalvageable. But the Fact is we can predict the Seasons of Poisons, Environmental hazards, Toxic Disasters. And prepare our Emergency Medical Services for better management by stocking the relevant antidotes, thus preventing mortality and morbidity by public awareness prior to the season of poisons. And based on Toxic Calendar, we can Promote Safety Precautions for safely storing Household Poisons, Toxins, and Chemicals.
