Any Suggestion For Feeling Ill, Throwing Up After Swallowed Off-brand Sellotape?

Was using off-brand Sellotape and cutting off pieces with my teeth but I think I ended up swallowing more than a few, because it was really badly made. I feel quite ill, like I want to throw up. Is there anything in the chemicals that would be likely to make me sick from swallowing large quantities of it?

Hi,

Such adhesive material may not harm to body if swallowed in small amount of pieces. Let me tell you something if this is the tape then it is difficult that one to go in stomach. It could remains in oral cavity unless you drink some liquid at that time. Then it may get slipped inside the stomach else it is less likely to go directly into stomach. So no need to worry about this.

Hope this information helps. Let me know if I can assist you further.
