Brief Answer:
Need not worry, Observe

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your query.

Need not worry, swallowing Listerine mouthwash does not harm your kid. There may occur mild gastric discomfort and even at times vomiting once or twice which is not serious.

If there is vomiting more than 2 times then do rush to the ER.

Hope, I answered your query.

Wish you good health.
