General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello, usually harpic contains acids which give out strong odor. But there are no gases which can be harmful by inhalation. You can try going in open air and try to breathe in it which might help you get relief from symptoms. As you also have small baby in house try to use the said product when baby is not nearby. If your breathing difficulty still persists kindly go to nearby hospital and and show to ER. Thank you
