Numerous children eat medicinal toxicity by mistake every year Can't let the medicine bottle be become " The magic box "
30,000 to 50,000 child medicinal toxicity was given medicine every year in our country, unexpectedly quite a few among them have " opened the medicine bottle curiously " Member of the CPPCC National Committee, Hou Huimin, academician of Chinese Academy of Engineering, call upon - -Can't let the medicine bottle be become " Pan Dora's magic box " . A bottle of cold drugs, are held by child, may become a " Pan Dora's magic box " . The reports of World Health Organization and United Nations Children's Fund point out, are " poisoned " Stand in children dying unexpectedly 5th of reason already, take medicine by mistake, chemical main " the poisonous source " . Chinese Academy of Engineering academician, the intersection of Chinese and medicine pack Huimin Hou, Deputy Chairman of association, two pay close attention to the fact and study these problem over the past three years, these days, as a member of the CPPCC National Committee, he took studying the gains to " two Conferences " The meeting-place, he says: "Stop this kind of tragedy, only need to move some brains in the design of the medicine bottle bottle lid sometimes, only costs several fen. " Children like imitating, " kill cats curiously " ? Week of week is still less than 2 years old, he who is curious took and treated chronic medicine that suffers from diarrhoea secretly, the result falls into the severe stupor, it is out of danger to send to hospital and rescue at long last. The parents frightening terribly it find, that bottle of medicines that family put on the desk conveniently are the arch-criminal, " the bottle is turned on, has probably lacked 6 slices " . Having listened to the doctor's warning, two people are frightened big again: It has been already enough to cause death that this kind of medicine took 6 sheets Week of week " Endanger " It is not a fatherless example. Academician Hou Huimin has said a group of terrifying data: "According to the domestic and existing research materials, and from the data which the hospitals of two places of Beijing and Shanghai collect, estimate roughly, our country nearly has 30,000 to 50,000 children (less than 15 years old) every year Because medicinal toxicity is given medicine, juveniles unidentified in quantity have been poisoned but not gone to the hospital to go to a doctor; Cause about 3000-4000 people of juvenile that sequela even disabled because of medicinal toxicity every year; It is about 200 million - 300 million yuan to deal with and treat the necessary expenses of these patients. Among them what because quite a few of children ate by mistake in medicines is poisonous. " "Children like imitating, they see adults taking medicine and wanting to study, have drunk syrup stealthily, still thought it was the syrup Curiosity and ' fearless the ignorant one ' guide child into the dangerous edge. " But Hou Huimin thinks, leads to the fact the murderer of the tragedy is not the child's curiosity, "it is our medicine that packs safe defect, children can not open taking a lot of trouble at all, is not this a question? " The safe packaging of medicines, should force the regulation "This meeting, Cui YongYuan brings a bottle of non-prescribed medicine produced in U.S.A. for me to see, it is with the security medicine bottle preventing the child from opening - -Press it for a while, could unscrew the bottle lid. " Hou Huimin introduces, the U.S.A. medicine is packed and generally adopted and designed safely, for example open the bottle lid, either need to use some skills, or need to use some strength, children can not do. This trick is very affective, " in the past 20 years, the mortality caused by medicinal toxicity of the children under the age of 5 of U.S.A. has been reduced by 45%; Australia stipulates after adopting medicines to pack safely, the decline that children are poisoned mortality is likewise considerable in proportion, and because this kind of injury rushes to the hospital the therapeutic number of people to reduce by 60%-90%. " World Health Organization and United Nations Children's Fund recommend taking the precautionary measures in advance as preventing the best choice of children's medicinal toxicity. "However, the medicine is packed safely but not been paid attention to our country yet. " Academician Hou says, improve packaging, the cost of each bottle of medicines is several more fen, but there are few enterprises doing it in this way, because the country has not made the hard and fast rule. U.S.A. gives medicine and packs legislating. Reporter know U.S.A. issue " poisonous substance pack regulation safely " on 1970, carry out by security council of the consumer products. " regulations " stipulate clearly, if medicines are offered to consumers directly according to being dispatched from the factory packing, manufacturer and packing trader have responsibility to adopt children's safe packaging; In 1974, U.S.A. legislated to require all oral medicine and adopt and defend children's open security packaging by force again. "Our country should force the regulation like this as soon as possible too. " Hou Huimin's serious suggestion. (Liu LiYuan)
