Poisoning and accidental oral intoxication are major health problems worldwide. Considering the insufficient efficacy of the currently available detoxification treatments, a pioneering oral detoxifying adsorbent agent based on a single biocompatible metal−organic framework (MOF) is here proposed for the efficient decontamination of drugs commonly implicated in accidental or voluntary poisoning. Furthermore, the in vivo toxicity and biodistribution of a MOF via oral administration have been investigated for the first time. Orally administered upon a salicylate overdose, this MOF is able to reduce the salicylate gastrointestinal absorption and toxicity more than 40-fold (avoiding histological damage) while exhibiting exceptional gastrointestinal stability (<9% degradation), poor intestinal permeation, and safety.
