I think I swallowed some Head and Shoulders. Will I be dead soon?
Was in the shower and applied by head and shoulders shampoo to my hair. I have dermatitis and very oily skin, so I use it on my face as well. (It helps with both of those issues.)
I dropped the shampoo container and said, “oh shit.” When I opened my mouth to say it, some of the shampoo went into my mouth.
I spat but I could still taste it. I kept spitting but the taste remained. I’m out of the shower and dried off but can still taste it, despite having thoroughly rinsed my mouth. Will it kill me? Should I get my affairs in order?

No, but your esophagus will no longer flake.

Shit, sorry R2. I think we posted at the same time.

This sounds like a revised Falcon scene.

I knew a girl who sailed Head &Shoulders. But then she didn't die.

Does the container have a poison warning?

Yuck. You use Head and Shoulders? I wouldn't want your flea market things. Trash.

Would you prefer I flake all over you, r12? I think not.

OP, you've already absorbed enough of it through your facial pores to kill you, so I wouldn't worry about swallowing a littel bit of it.

Indeed I have r16. But what’s your point?

Better to swallow that than some Neutrogena T-Gel with coal tar.

At last I finally understand why they felt the need to write "For External Use Only" on shampoo bottles... for the benefit of people like OP.

You're dead. Perhaps it's time to choose which family member you're going to visit after death and which medium will relay your messages from beyond the grave.

It's delicious with a splash of tonic water and a twist of lemon.

We all certainly hope so.

How do you swallow shoulders?

Google says Shampoo is considered relatively nontoxic. Most shampoos are minimally poisonous in small amounts, but they can irritate the eyes and cause symptoms of nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea if ingested. If an allergic reaction occurs, seek immediate medical help. Call poison control for further information.

On the bright side you won’t die with dandruff.
