What Should Be Done if a Child is Exposed to Dieffenbachia?
If a child ingests or comes into contact with dieffenbachia, it is crucial to act quickly:
Remove any plant material from the child's mouth. Rinse the mouth thoroughly with water. Wash any skin that has come into contact with the sap. If the sap gets into the eyes, rinse thoroughly with water for at least 15 minutes. Call Poison Control or seek immediate medical attention.
