AUSTIN BABY PROOFING MYTH #3

Childproof lids are too hard for children to remove. Therefore, they are safe. This is Austin baby proofing myth #3 in a series of myth busting.

Not true. No container is ”childproof”, some are child resistant. To be childproof the FDA requires that 80% or more children cannot remove the lids. What about the other 20%? That is why Infant House recommends securing all medications.

Many medications look like candy. These examples are from poison.org :

Candy good.  Medicine can be poison.
Medicine can look like candy.

Medication should be secured from toddlers using childproof lids in addition to being out of reach and or locked away. Infant House recommends locking all the drawers and doors below the counter top and storing medication in one of these locked cabinets or in a locked box. The locks we use are the best on the market. They can be turned on and off and are super strong.
