You are about to see 2 brothers in the pediatric area, one 2 and another one 4-year-old. They were brought in by their mother, who is concerned that they may have had some of her iron tablets 1 hour ago at home. She pulled out at least 4-5 tablets from the younger one’s mouth.
According to the mother, there were 30 tablets in the bottle, with 105mg elemental iron in each tablet.
- What is your risk assessment in this situation?
