Welcome! I would be happy to assist you. I am a 2003 graduate from UC Davis and a Medical Director of a veterinarian practice.Hello, Well, am I worried about any organ toxicity. NoBut, could it still possibly cause some bad stomach or intestinal distress? YesSo, you'll have to keep an eye out for vomiting, diarrhea, loss of appetite, or bloating (bloated or tense belly).If ingested within the past 1 hour, you could elect to induce vomiting to get it out.To induce vomiting at home, give 1 teaspoon for every 10 pounds of body weight of 3% hydrogen peroxide. ONLY use the 3% peroxide. If no vomiting within 15 minutes, the dose can be repeated. It is an irritant to the stomach lining, and that is why it causes vomiting. Hope that info helpsBut, not worried about organ toxicity.Dr. Andy Please remember to leave feedback by selecting a SMILEY FACE followed by “Submit”.
