Hello,
Accidental ingestion of deodorant is toxic. It irritates the intestine & stomach. It may also cause respiratory symptoms.
In the hospital, he should be under observation for a few days so that any developing symptoms can be treated & all possible medical aid can be given.
When treatment gets neglected, it may result in complications later in life.
When the severity of the poison is high & it is not treated in time, it may get fatal.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
