title: [Acute intoxication in the child].
abstract: Acute intoxications of children remain too frequents, despite of an open decrease of mortality and a regression of morbidity in less than 20 years. Medicaments are in the majority, but their gravity concern the house caustic, industrial products (White spirit, oil, antifreeze), fertilizers and herbicides, the carbon monoxide intoxication. Many parents are careless or make several behaviour's mistakes, which mislead youngsters of less 4 or 5 years. Quick help to regional CAP, or 15 by failure, good medical advice, early arrival to emergency unit, or the displacement, very exceptional, of SMUR's team, at last, now well systematize therapeutics indications have allowed to realize very great progress since the eighties.
