Hello dear,welcome to HCM forum.
That exactly will depend on the type and amount of impurity you got in.
Anyhow,usually,this will not cause much harm;just watch for symptoms like nausea/vomiting/abdominal pain/alteration in color or consistency of stools etc for 1- 2 days.After this period,nothing is likely.
Hope this answer will help.
Take care.
Thank you.
