Toxins and anti-toxins and their elimination

Some repellents, combined with poison, neutralize its ill effects. For example, if the poison is a strong acid, the effect of the acid is neutralized by treatment with dilute ammonia (a teaspoon of ammonia in half-point water) or lime water, magnesia, chalk, etc. If the poison is strong base, then it can be combated with mild acid, dilute acetic acid, vinegar, lemon juice. If the exact form of the poison is not known, then its effect should be reduced by giving egg white, sweet oil (except phosphorus poison) and sufficient amount of water or milk. Try to expel the poison as quickly as possible by placing a finger in the mouth, or by giving a sedative. Vomiting can be done by drinking plenty of plain water or by adding a spoonful of mustard syrup to a cup of hot water. Most poisons are dispelled with milk, egg whites, or hard coffee or tea. Medicines that produce symptoms as opposed to those caused by poison should be taken. If chills, fatigue and fainting occur, the poisoned person should be kept warm and given stimulants such as hard coffee or hard tea. If sleep comes, it is good to put him in a tub of hot water. If necessary, artificial respiration should be resorted to without hesitation. In the case of narcotic drugs, hard coffee should be used as soon as possible.

A doctor should be called immediately and shown to the person who is poisoned and the poison that has been ingested or may have been eaten should be reported to the doctor. If the poison has gone into the stomach, then after consulting the doctor, measures should be taken to empty the stomach.
