They specialize in identifying the specific toxins involved, assessing the severity of exposure, and implementing appropriate treatment strategies.

Medical toxicologists often collaborate with emergency medicine physicians and critical care teams, providing expertise in the identification and treatment of toxic exposures. The field involves comprehensive risk assessment, monitoring, and therapeutic interventions to mitigate the harmful effects of various substances on human health. Toxicology is essential for public health and safety, contributing to the development of preventive measures and strategies to minimize the impact of toxins on individuals and communities.
