New poster with questions/activated charcoal

[Guest guest]

Hello all,

I bought some activated charcoal tablets for those (hopefully rare!)

occasions when my 10 y.o. son ingests something he shouldn't.

Questions: He doesn't swallow pills yet. Can this be given by opening

up the capsule and put in a spoonful of non-dairy dessert, which is

the way I give him his anti-viral and anti-fungal? Should it be given

away from the prescription meds, and if so, how much time away from them?

TIA,

Donna

Its 2 hours away from supps, and I would imagine meds as well. You can add to

foods....---
