This is harmless. You wouldn't want to drink a whole bottle, but small amounts are entirely safe. Of course nobody would produce or market a mouthwash if swallowing some of it were harmful!

You will probably experience an upset stomach. Also you may feel a bit queasy or nauseated for a while, but this will go away relatively soon. Don't worry.
