AB KEY  POINTSSupportive  care  is  most  important.  “Treat  the  patient  not  the  poison.”Always  check  for  the  common  and  treatable  coingestants:  alcohol,  acetaminophen,  and  salicylates.Consider  decontamination  and  the  use  of  antidotes.Empiric  treatment  with  glucose,  naloxone  and  thiamine  is  generally  safe  in  the  comatose  patient.Always  seek  help  from  your  regional  poison  control  center.
