The Toxicology Times is a quarterly newsletter written and published by the Specialists in Poison Information (SPIs) at the Ontario Poison Centre. As your partners in care, it is our responsibility to ensure that you have current, evidence-based information regarding the poisoned patients that you are treating.

One way we have chosen to accomplish this task is to provide you with a newsletter that contains interesting case studies and discussions on related topics.

We are hoping that this publication will open the doors of communication between the Ontario Poison Centre staff and our colleagues in emergency departments throughout the province.  

If you are a health-care professional and would like a copy of the Toxicology Times or have an idea of a topic for future issues, please contact us via e-mail at: poison.information@sickkids.ca
