Question: My son 24 months old drank XXXXXXX fabric whitner is it poisionus and what are the symptoms after drinking?
Brief Answer:
He needs to be taken to emergency or surgery hospital
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
fabric whitener contains chlorine and will need to decontaminate. I do not know how much liquid he has taken.
Gastric lavage will be needed. So he needs to be taken to a surgeon as soon as possible with 2-3 hrs of ingestion. If the liquid is washed out, he will probably not needed medicines. Take the bottle of the whitener with you. Give him some milk.
Hope this helps. Let me know if I can assist you further.
