Age and sex
Age by sex
Shows count or percentage of cases by age group by sex for completed, nonduplicated webPOISONCONTROL cases. Ages are grouped as <6, 6-12, 13-19, 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, 60-69, and 70-79 years. webPOISONCONTROL does not provide triage recommendations for infants younger than 6 months or seniors over 79 years due to the unique characteristics of poisonings in these more vulnerable age groups.
Click to enlarge the chart and apply filters to the age and sex distribution by substance category, route, triage recommendation, outcome, month/year, etc.
Age distribution
