Brief Answer:
Not life threatening...

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

At the outset, the pill won't cause life threatening complications. However he may experience abdominal cramps and diarrhea. The symptoms may hurt him. It would be worthwhile to visit a doctor / ER and get him treated symptomatically whenever the symptoms do occur.

Besides symptomatic treatment, there is no other measures necessary.

Hope this helps. Let me know if you need clarifications.
