Just in case anyone would ever wonder about such a thing-
liquid albuterol ampules used for a nebulizer are not childproof. Three year olds can very easily twist that little top off. To a three year old,albuterol looks like something good to drink,I guess. The good news is that Poison Control says that even if she (or any three year old) had drank an entire 3 ml ampule, the most that would happen is they'd have a stomach ache and feel a little blah.
(Just in case anyone would ever possibly wonder about such a thing.)
Luckily,in my thankfully limited experience,I have found out that most 3 year olds find that albuterol really does not taste all that fabulous and after the first swallow,they decide they've had enough.
Nonetheless...I freaked out.
I adore this youngest child of mine but all the things I always bragged about my first three child NEVER doing,she has done. I guess it's payback for gloating about my wonderfully angelic prior children.
