Is There Any Problem In Swallowing Marker Ink?

I believe my 3 year old daughter may have swallowed some permanent marker ink. I rinsed out her mouth and brushed her teeth the best I could. Is there anything else I should do? I have no idea what king of marker it was. It was colored on something that she sucked on.

Hi,

This is unlikely to cause any significant effects, as the amount will be negligible only. Just watch for any symptoms like vomiting, irritability, headache for next 24 hours. If not, we need not worry

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Muhammed Aslam T. K., Pediatrician
