Gastric lavage, or stomach pumping, is a medical procedure to remove toxins or substances from the stomach. It involves introducing a tube through the mouth or nose into the stomach and then rinsing the stomach with a saline solution or water. The liquid is subsequently withdrawn along with the stomach's contents, effectively cleansing the stomach. Gastric lavage is performed in cases of poisoning or overdose, mainly when the ingestion is recent.
