Hello ma'am and welcome.
I am sure the dettol was too diluted to cause any hamr, but it would be wise to drink as much water and cranberry juice as possible to help promote expulsion of fluids from your body as much as possible. Please also report tp your doctor for further management. But in my opinion the intake would have been too less to cause any trouble.
Hope this helps.
Best wishes.
