I just learned that my 6 year old has been swallowing her kids mouthwash each night instead of spitting it out. I m worried that this is why she has been having stomach pains and wondering if this might have caused serious damage to her kidneys. It is alcohol free but has .05% sodium flouride.
Hi Dear Welcome to the Chat Doctor, Nothing much harm is expected but still the gastritis part which can be the cause of stomachache. Give him some antacid gel like gene gel for week or so gastritis part should improve.Also, please add some PPI like lansoprazole dispersible tablet for 4 to 6 weeks. Now days' gastritis is also common because of the junk food now days prevalent in the society. Deworming to be considered. Brushing the teeth regularly twice a day is equally sufficient for cleaning the mouth. Mouth wash is not so necessary Hope the query is answered. Thanks
