During the course of investigation of two infants with seizure disorders it was discovered that both had been given large amounts of a preparation of borax and honey which resulted in chronic borate intoxication. In one child a profound anemia developed as well. The symptoms of chronic borate intoxication are different from those of the acute poisoning with which we are more familiar. The borax and honey preparations are highly dangerous and should no longer be manufactured or distributed for sale.

在对两名患有癫痫症的婴儿进行调查的过程中，发现两人都摄入了大量硼砂和蜂蜜制剂，导致慢性硼酸盐中毒。其中一名儿童还出现了严重贫血。慢性硼酸盐中毒的症状与我们更为熟悉的急性中毒症状不同。硼砂和蜂蜜制剂极具危险性，不应再进行生产或销售。
