What Are The Consequences Of Accidental Intake Of Toilet Cleaner ?

my son accidently ingested a mixture of toilet bowl cleaner with bleach, soft scrub with bleach and windex yesterday afternoon. he took in approximately 1/2 cup. he threw up several times and felt nauseaus and dizzy. i called the poison control center and followed their instructions to have him start drinking small amounts of water starting 15 minutes after the last time he threw up. He seemed to be feeling better last night. He woke up this morning and says he feels dizzy and sick to his stomach again. could this still be a problem with the bleach or something else entirely?

Thanks for ure query
Accidental intake of toilet cleaner must have disturbed his normal flora of stomach and caused gastritis u can give him probiotic sachet in a glass of water or milk ,acid lowering medicine like tablet nexum, domperidone syrup or tablet for gastic emptying and avoid fatty diet for a few days and give him food that digests quickly like rice hopefully he would be better in a few days if he has blood in vomit or black coloured stool then take him to ure physician for complete check up
