Will Drinking A Mixture Of Seven Up, Dettol, And Acid Cause Harm?

Hi, today my friend gave me a bottle of water from her Locker cuz I left mine at home, by accident it turned out to be her science project witch was a mixture of 7up,dettol and some other acid it liquid. I drank the full bottle of it, thinking it was jst flavored water and then realized after that it was her experiment that I drank. She doesn't not the exact amount of liquid that was in it. I'm jst asking is this harmful to me in any way? It's now been 12 hours since I had it it and nothing had happened so do I have anytin to worry about? Thanks for any advice!

Hello,
Thanks for choosing health care magic for posting your query.
I have gone through your question in detail and I can understand what you are going through.

Detol can cause stomach burns. You are fortunate that you have no symptoms until now other wise by now you would have started vomiting. Still 12 hours is still less and you may still have the symptoms. Now that its been 12hours, the stomach wash cannot be given. You may consult a doctor and get a prescription of Pantoprazole or rabeprazole to reduce the acidity. Keep watching for stomach pain or vomiting and visit the emergency in case you have these symptoms. You may also get a Kidney Function test and liver function test done to see if there was any toxic effect on liver or kidney.
Hope I am able to answer your concerns.
If you have any further query, I would be glad to help you again.

Wish you good health,
Kind regards
Dr. Pooja Reddy M.D.
