An immediate check up is needed. This kind of toxicity can lead to severe side effects and treatment should be initiated as soon as possible. That would include IV fluids, gastric decontamination and medication to decrease gastrointestinal absorption. Please do not hesitate to contact us again on the forum or by requesting a consultation if you have any more questions or to discuss it any further.
