💊☠️ 🔒 Safe storage saves lives.
Storing medications and other poisonous products safely away after every use keeps your household safe. Safe storage = up high, locked and out of sight. parachute.ca/poisonpreventionweek #RethinkPoisons #NPPW2026 #NationalPoisonPreventionWeeK

Read and follow the dosage. Medications do not work better by taking more than the recommended dose. They work best when you take the correct dose. Avoid doubling up❕ www.youtube.com/shorts/7o3Oe... #ReThinkPoisons #NPPW2026
