TY - JOUR PY - 1937// TI - Salicylate poisoning: an explanation of the more serious manifestations JO - American journal of diseases of children (1911) A1 - Minot, Ann S. A1 - Arena, Jay M. A1 - Dodd, Katharine SP - 1435 EP - 1446 VL - 53 IS - 6 N2 - The numerous reports in the literature of poisoning due to salicylates apart from manifestations of an allergic idiosyncrasy to the drug indicate that salicyl compounds are not always the harmless household remedy that they are generally supposed to be. The ingestion of large amounts of salicylates by children accidentally or by adults with suicidal intent account for the majority of the reported instances of poisoning. Occasionally, however, intoxication results from intensive therapeutic use of the drug.
