Greeting from Dr. Divakara.P     
First of all thanks for choosing Healthcaremagic for posting your query.

Yes it is harmful . Gastric lavage after 8-10 hours will not be helpful but you do need to take him to hospital for observation and treatment.

Symptoms may not appear till something serious happens . I still recommend you to go to hospital and get treated .

No need to give him any medicines now by yourself . Just give him 2 litres and Salt water to drink and take him to hospital .
