*{{discussion}} I find the segment "poisoning by non-pharmaceuticals" confusing.  Isopropyl alcohol for example has some pharmaceutical uses as a disinfectant.  I think we should remove this phrase in both of the options that contain them for the reason that the phrase is unnecessary and confusing.  Just leave as follows:  Alcohol (ethanol) poisoning and   Toxic alcohols poisoning.
