What Are The Side Effects Of Consuming Lysol Disinfectant?

Hello doctor,
I accidentally consumed less than one ounce of lysol disinfectant. The poison control center said it's fine as its Ph is 5.0 which is less than the limit of 7.0. But i am worried if it could caused any internal damage. What would you suggest?

Thanks!

Hello welcome to the HCM
Since accidently inhaling the product for an extended period may result in health problems. There are some side effects, if you feel you are having them after inhaling the product then you should alert the doctor,otherwise it could be very less amount you inhaled which will not cause any harm.
The side effects are.1.feeling drowsy 2.tiredness 3.headache 4.breathing problem,suffocation,coughing and so on.
If any of above side effect you are feeling you must alert nearby doctor and discuss further.
Hopefully my answer will be helpfull for you.
