Northern New England Poison Center

The hotline staff is supported by a Medical Director, who is a Medical Doctor boarded in toxicology, and a Managing Director, who holds a Doctorate in Pharmacy and is also boarded in toxicology. The Directors are available for consultation with health care professionals and provide both in-house and off-site education.

Poisons can hurt you-or even kill you-if you eat them, breathe them, or get them in your eyes or on your skin. The Northern New England Poison Center can help you with questions about:

  • Household products
  • Chemicals at work, in school, and in the environment
  • Drugs (prescription, over-the-counter, herbal, illegal, or animal medicines)
  • Animal bites
For lifesaving treatment advice about any kind of poison, call 1-800-222-1222.  All services are free and confidential.

TTY service for the deaf and hard-of-hearing and translators for those who do not speak English are also available through the 1-800-222-1222 number.

When healthcare providers need information about treating poisonings, they also call the Northern New England Poison Center.

Contact Us: Northern New England Poison Center at 1-800-222-1222, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Call FAST to treat a poisoning! Call FIRST to prevent a poisoning!
