Brief Answer:
Its better to vomit it out
Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to Ask A Doctor service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
In my opinion, if you can vomit it out by gagging or any other procedure, it will be best. Otherwise in emergency, doctors can do a gastric lavage within 6 hours of ingestion.
Otherwise small amounts should not produce any problems.
If there are any symptoms like bleeding from mouth, vomiting, pain abdomen, breathing problem, seizures, then see a doctor in emergency as it contains substances that can affect the brain.
Hope it helps. Let me know if I can assist you further.
