KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN
Swallowing can lead to chemical burns,
perforation of soft tissue, and death.Severe
burns can occur within 2 hours of ingestion.
Seek medical attention immediately.
• Place sticky tape around both sides of
the battery and dispose of it immediately
in an outside bin or recycle safely
• Store spare batteries securely
• recycling units emptied on a regular basis
• use of opaque containers – to keep the
batteries out of view;
Unfortunately, it is not obvious when a
button or coin battery is stuck in a child's
oesophagus (food pipe). The child might:
• cough, gag or drool a lot;
• appear to have a stomach upset or a virus;
• be sick;
• point to their throat or stomach;
• have a pain in their abdomen, chest or throat;
• be tired or lethargic;
• be quieter or more clingy than usual or
otherwise "not themselves";
• lose their appetite or have a reduced
appetite;
• not want to eat solid food / be unable to
eat solid food.
These sorts of symptoms vary or fluctuate,
with the pain increasing and then subsiding.
A specific symptom to button and coin
battery ingestion is vomiting fresh (bright
red) blood. If the child does this seek
immediate medical help.
The lack of clear symptoms is why it is
important to be vigilant with "flat" or spare
button or coin batteries in the home and the
products that contain them.
