Nothing to worry

Hello,
Thanks for the query.
Ear wax solvent contain Carbamide peroxide, which is harmless in small amount as in your case.
If you swallow small amount nothing will happen, it might cause burns when large amount is ingested.
Nothing much to worry and no treatment is required either.
