Brief Answer:
Hi,

Detailed Answer:
The symptoms will depend upon the amount & concentration of its ingredient in the solution,particularly the main ingredient BAC(Benzalkonium chloride). Apart from irritation of throat,digestive tract-it has also systemic side effects like diarrhoea,vomiting,pulse irregularity,& respiratory difficulty.
However,plenty of water intake is primary first aid.The symptoms of throat irritation may go by itself with time after repeatedly taking water. Hoeever,if the symptoms of palpitation,respiratory difficulty, severe pain in food pipe or stomach or symptoms of shock, are present,it is an indication of medical consultation for proper treatment,which may require,IV fluids,observation of vital signs & may be needed stomach wash etc.
