Brief Answer:
Should not cause serious problem.

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Welcome to HCM.
I can understand your concerns.

5ml dettol will not cause any serious problem. It can however cause irritation and burning sensation in throat and stomach.

I would suggest her to take sucralfate syrup and lots of water. It is always better to be in touch with your local doctor.

Wish you good health.
Thanks.
