TOXBASE is the primary clinical toxicology database of the National Poisons Information Service (NPIS) for UK healthcare professionals.
Members of the public can ring NHS111 to get advice on suspected poisoning.
Health care professionals can register for access to TOXBASE on the web, the TOXBASE app and the TOXBASE e-learning resources. Users must register using an NHS domain address and will be required to validate the account annually.
Efforts are made to ensure the accuracy and agreement of these guidelines, including any content uploaded, referred to or linked to from the system. However, BNSSG ICB cannot guarantee this. This guidance does not override the individual responsibility of healthcare professionals to make decisions appropriate to the circumstances of the individual patient, in consultation with the patient and/or guardian or carer, in accordance with the mental capacity act, and informed by the summary of product characteristics of any drugs they are considering. Practitioners are required to perform their duties in accordance with the law and their regulators and nothing in this guidance should be interpreted in a way that would be inconsistent with compliance with those duties.
