Does Swallowing Odomos Cream Cause Any Adverse Side Effects?

I see that other people have done that ... I have mistakenly used Odomos mosquito repellant cream (N N diethybenzamide 12%) for brushing teeth 48 hours ago and I am still very concerned. I realized that I have used the wrong tube within one minute or so. I don t think I swallowed anything but can t be sure. I washed my mouth thoroughly and drank two glasses of water. On the first day I had some stomach pain but now I feel general weakness. Is it possible to have delayed effect of the chemical? Is there anything I need to do now? Thanks

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

It won’t cause much problems and no need to worry that much. You are already stated that very minimal amount was ingested, so absolutely nothing to worry and no treatment is required. The lethal dose for Odomos is very high and so nothing will happen even if you had swallowed some amount.

Wishing you good health.

Thanks.
