General toxin binder for oral poisoning cases
Oral poisoning is a state of intoxication caused by substances ingested, inhaled, or contacted through the mouth. These substances often include accidentally ingested chemicals, medications, food, or other toxic materials. Immediate medical intervention is vital.
Modern case management in oral poisonings—especially for unconscious patients where obtaining medical history is difficult—has moved away from methods like induced vomiting, which pose risks of contaminating the hospital environment and aspiration of gastric contents into the trachea. Instead, the use of ready-to-use aqueous activated charcoal suspensions, acting as a general toxin binder (adsorbent), has become the primary approach.
The sterility of the product provides extra safety for patients in severe poisoning cases, particularly those who are in a coma or have significantly weakened immune systems. Furthermore, its ready-to-use aqueous suspension packaging ensures it can be deployed RAPIDLY in emergencies without wasting time. This feature is especially beneficial for unconscious patients, allowing for quick administration via a nasogastric tube.
