Specializes in Urgent Care

NPIS United Kingdom: In Scotland, England and Wales, people can call 111to reach the National Poison Information Service. You should call this number and have the bottle with you. Describe any symptoms to them and the amount you think you ingested. They will counsel you on whether you need to go to the ER. http://www.npis.org

Call Poison control: You should call your local poison control center. Let them know the product brand that you ingested. They will let you know what you have to do. If they tell you to go to the hospital remember to take the jar of the hair removal cream with you. Hope this helps
