I was taking my medicine and it fell on my shoes and then on dirty floor. i took the medicine without washing it. what will happen?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
if there were germs on the floor that attached to the med, you added them to the germs inside your digestive tract. If they were bad germs you could get sick, if not you may not. Consider yourself like a toddler sampling dust bunnies to see how they taste. They usually do okay in spite of this.
