As kids' accidental ODs rise, FDA still won't mandate flow restrictors in medicine bottles

Now you are resorting to hyperbole. A 120V electrical socket is designed to be tough to touch the hot lead. But in places where it is a higher and far more lethal voltage, like Europe, the electrical sockets are recessed. Additionally, in places where there is a higher probability of injury, like in a bathroom near water, GFCI circuits are required. And a child drinking a bottle of wine is improbable, but it is still far less hazardous than overdosing on acetaminophen. But again, none of this has anything to do with whether or not it is wise to put a flow restrictor on a bottle of children’s medicine.
