DO YOU NEED ADVICE ON SUSPECTED POISONING? WE ARE HERE FOR YOU 24 HOURS A DAY, 7 DAYS A WEEK.

We provide 24/7 telephone consultations for acute poisonings in humans and animals. We have been helping healthcare professionals since 1962. We have been here for the public since 1989.

Are you calling as a healthcare professional? Before your telephone consultation, if possible, prepare an estimate of the amount of medication (active ingredient) ingested and the patient's body weight. This information will significantly speed up the provision of recommendations.

In the section INFORMATION FOR THE PUBLIC You will find practical advice on the most common poisons and hazardous substances you may encounter in everyday life, including important information for parents.

In the section INFORMATION FOR PROFESSIONALS Specialized information is available, including an overview of antidotes and anti-infectives and recommended practices for healthcare professionals.

WE PROVIDE STOCK OF UNREGISTERED ANTIDOTES AND ANTI-INFECTIVES

The Toxicology Information Center of the General University Hospital provides management of stocks of selected unregistered antidotes, anti-infectives, serums and other drugs intended for the treatment of life-threatening poisonings and serious infectious conditions.
