Hello dear,

Depending on the amount consumed, ingestion of harpic cleaner causes sore throat, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, headache, dizziness, convulsions, etc. which can apprear within minutes to up to 48 hrs of consumption.

As you are having burning sensation inside stomach, it is not advisable to go for self medication.
Immediately seek medical attention in Emergency Room for Stomach wash/ Gastric lavage.
Once the contents has been removed, further management will be based on the symptoms.

Wishing you a good health.
Take care.
