What Does PPA Stand For?
PPA stands for Poison Prevention Act
The Poison Prevention Act (PPA) is a U.S. federal law enacted in 1970 that aims to protect children from accidental poisoning by requiring safety packaging for household substances, including medications and household chemicals. The act establishes standards for child-resistant packaging to reduce the risk of ingestion and promotes public awareness about poison safety. Through regulations and guidelines, the PPA plays a critical role in safeguarding children while ensuring that necessary products remain accessible to adults.
