Journal of Paediatrics and Child Health, 1985
AbstractThis paper reviews epidemiological factors, drugs taken, management and outcome of 478 children admitted to the Royal Children's Hospital with drug poisoning during the 5 years 1978‐82.

Pharmacokinetics of Drug Overdose

Clinics in Laboratory Medicine, 1990
Drugs ingested in overdose can have altered pharmacokinetics of absorption, distribution, and elimination. The pathophysiologic consequences of overdose can also change a drug's pharmacokinetic properties. Many toxicologic interventions are based on modifying the drug's pharmacokinetics (e.g., impairing absorption or enhancing elimination).
