Call poison control: Call poison control to research the product. Take him to hospital for any symptoms of difficulty breathing or persistent cough as some ingested products can end up in the airway. Other concerns are difficulty swallowing, drooling or vomiting particularly blood. Follow the advice of poison control. I hope he is OK.
