Call Poison Control!: It depends on what was in the product you used. Please see http://www.npis.org/ and look on the left for the poison control hotline for your country in the UK (europe) or do a google search for the country you are in. (United Kingdom countries cover a lot of ground and I don't know if this computer program lists Bermuda and other British colonies/territories as "United Kingdom." Call now!
