Hello dear I understand your concern Harpic cause severe damage to the mucosal membrane of respiratory tract and GIT tract. Severity depend on the amount of ingestion Take following advises: Take 30ml of antacids like mucaine gel to reduce the pain Take 30 ml olive oil Do not induce the vomiting. Drink plenty of water.
Go to emergency room as early as possible and undergo chest Xray and upper GI endoscopy to know the damage. Damage should be prevented further by anti emetic and antacid medicine.
Hope this may help you Best regards Dr. Sagar
