My friend accidentally drank some Dettol liquid. I'm really worried. Can you suggest any home remedies or first aid steps we can try right away?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
First, call emergency services or poison control for immediate help. Do not induce vomiting. Do not give anything by mouth to drink. Rinse mouth with water if conscious. Monitor for difficulty breathing, seizures, or other symptoms. Do not administer any home remedies without professional guidance. Seek medical help immediately.

View allI'm really worried and need some advice. If someone accidentally takes an overdose of sleeping pills, how long does it usually take for them to wake up? Should I be doing something specific to help them, or is it better to let them sleep it off? I would really appreciate any guidance on this.
The time it takes for a person to wake up after an overdose of sleeping pills can vary depending on the specific medication taken, the amount ingested, and individual factors. In general, it is important to seek immediate medical attention in cases of overdose. The treatment may involve administering activated charcoal, providing supportive care, and monitoring vital signs. The specific medication and dosage will determine the appropriate treatment plan.

Alright, so yesterday around 1:30 PM, I got the Covid-19 vaccine. Then, a few hours later, I fell off my bike and got some scrapes and bumps on my leg and hand. I went to the closest clinic to get my wounds looked at, and the doctor there told me I should get a tetanus shot within 24 hours. Im wondering, is it really necessary to get it in that exact time frame, or is there some flexibility? Can I get the tetanus shot within 48 hours instead? What should I do?
