Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXX
Welcome
I have gone through your query and do understand your concern.
In the absence of any symptoms there is nothing to be worried about.
In fact there are betadine gargles available and some amount through such gargles does go in the stomach.So no need to be worried.You can drink water as it dilutes it. Be careful with things in future.
I would suggest you to go to E, if you have symptoms lIke severe stomach ache, pain abdomen and severe vomiting.
As it is accident, I don't think you should think of doing it again.
There is no consequences as such of it.
Regarding E, sorry it is ER.
Drink plenty of water, avoid alcohol, spicy food and smoking for few days. As you are drinking plenty of water, frequency of urination will increase and it is fine
Hope this helps, I'll be glad to address your further queries.
Take care.
