ROCKVILLE, Md. - Marylandian -- Dr. John P. Rosa, opioid crisis expert, author and dynamic talks about the tragedy of toddlers being exposed to opioid and other OTC medications when in the care of grandparents and how these young children end up permanently damaged or worse as a result.

ROCKVILLE, MD. March 30, 2020: Owner of Accessible Beltway Clinics and opioid crises expert, Dr. John Rosa, posted a new blog on his website entitled, "65,000 Toddlers A Year Exposed To Drugs And Many Die As A Result," in which Dr. Rosa urges anyone who cares for young children to be especially careful with keeping their medications safely out of reach.

Dr. Rosa states, "Very young children, I'm talking about toddlers, are being irreversibly harmed and/or are dying at an alarming rate due to the fact that they are getting access to drugs intended for their parents or grandparents."

Dr. Rosa writes, "The percentage of people over 60 that are on several medications is alarming in itself but when you think about how many of them care for their grandchildren you can imagine my concern." He goes on to add, "The labeled, days-of-the-week pill boxes are given to the majority of these people and what scares me is that it looks like a child's toy with snapping plastic compartments with pretty colored objects inside."s
