Each year, more than 35,000 young children ages 5 and younger end up in emergency departments after getting into medicines or supplements that were left within reach. Arm the parents and caregivers in your school community with safe medicine storage tips via this program from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s PROTECT Initiative. Use these posters and info sheets to help promote safe medicine storage and prevent accidental ingestions in young children!
