Does Drinking Water Help To Flush Out Bleach From The System?

My glass was scrungy, so I filled it with water and added a couple of squirts of bleach to clean it. Then, OOPS! forgot about the bleach and swallowed a mouthful of the water! YIKES! after the I downed couple of glasses of clear water and some left over coffee. Also drank a bottle of Ensure... Did I do right?????

Hello. Yes, you did fine here. The thing you don't want to do is to induce vomiting with bleach ingestion/-that can damage your esophagus. You should be just fine.
