Question: I got a very,very small swipe of of Desitin (Maximum Strength) in my mouth? Should I be concerned?
Brief Answer:
Nothing to worry
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thank you for your query.
I'm Dr. Shuba Hariprasad and will be answering your query today.
No, don't worry.
Just wash and rinse out your mouth well a few times.
A small swipe will not do any harm and you haven't swallowed it either.
If you do have any throat irritation, warm water Gargling will help.
Please be careful. Hope this helps. Please let me know if there is anything else I can help you with.
Wish you good health.
