Hello,
Nothing will happen with a small amount of fabric cleaner. It is not that much lethal and does not give rise to any health-related issues.
As of now, no definite treatment is required either.
If you develop symptoms like abdominal pain or vomiting, you can seek help from a doctor.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Shinas Hussain,
