What Needs To Be Done If A Child Accidentally Swallows Clotrimazole Cream?

My 20 month old(she is about 25 lbs, and about 30 inches tall) got into the bathroom, climbed up on the counter and I found her playing with Athlete s foot (Clotrimazole) cream. She had it on her hands, stomach, and some on her face, not sure if she swallowed any or got it in her mouth for that matter. Was just wondering if I should take her to ER? says get medical help if swallowed.
