A member asked:
Do you have to do anything if a child that swallows a spoonful of hair shampoo and/or conditioner?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Soap (shampoo) is not harmful (usually) if swallowed and particularly in such a small amount. But learn from this that children will try or taste just about anything and it is our responsibility to prevent this. Always be aware.
