This table provides the coding of each product’s attributes, both listed in the FIP Directive [4] criteria and referred by a patient (or a caller) in explaining his/her accidental poisoning ingestion. Form, color, odor, volume and size are criteria easier to code than appearance and packaging, given the difference between product appearance and product packaging is not obvious (e.g., [139]). In this table, we have coded “appearance” as confusing attribute only for solid products (e.g., bleach tablet, dishwasher tablet, etc.) and “packaging” only for liquid products (e.g., shower gel, shampoo, etc.). Regarding to labeling, this criteria is fulfilled each time the product or brand name is confusing (e.g., Eau Précieuse (#N) given it means “precious water”).
