What should you do if your child ate the cellophane wrapper of a Fruit Roll-up?

If your child has eaten the cellophane wrapper of a Fruit Roll-up, it is important to take action.

Cellophane is not digestible and can cause a blockage in the digestive tract, leading to serious health problems.

Here is what you should do:

1. Check your child's mouth and throat. Look for any pieces of the cellophane wrapper that may be lodged in their mouth or throat. If you see anything, try to carefully remove it.

2. Give them plenty of fluids to drink. This will help to flush out the cellophane from their system.

3. Monitor their bowel movements. If your child does not have a bowel movement within 24 hours, or if their bowel movements are difficult, hard, and infrequent, call your doctor.

4. If your child experiences the following symptoms, seek immediate medical attention:

- Abdominal pain

- Nausea

- Vomiting

- Constipation

- Diarrhea

- Bloating

- Fever
