Can Harpic Toilet Cleaner Use Cause Cancer?
Hi doctor, I am a 21-yr-old male, not allergic to anything. I accidentally replaced my dishwashing cleaner with Harpic toilet cleaner for one week. I heard that the toilet cleaner is extremely acidic and may left harmful residue in my body. Is it possible that I may get cancer? What should I do?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
You had exposed to the toilet cleaner for only one week, that too after cleaning with clear water. It won’t cause any cancer in future. No need to worry and no treatment is required as of now. Avoid unwanted anxiety and concentrate on your works.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
