HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, it is all depends upon how much amount being taken, what ever the chemical agent is there non of this is safe and all the chemical molecules are lethal if taken in high amount call the lethal dose, and that is not the case even little amount could be harmful if the chemical agent is potent.
Here the combinations of chemical agents are there, and they are not safe could cause the bad effect of digestive system, respiratory system, cardio pulmonary system, even if the ingested amount would be low still it is advisable to see the ER
hope this information helps.
I find this answer helpful
