Hi thanks for your question.
You have taken lot of concentrated cleaning solution and brushed your teeth contaminated with cleaning solution.
Since one day has already passed, there is no use of stomach wash.
You should consult some physician, and get your EGD(endoscopy) done to access the damage to your esophagus(throat) and stomach.
Meanwhile you can take tab pentaperazole 40mg daily.
