Am I poisoned from swallowing toothpaste?

I think I may have swallowed a little bit of colgate fluoride last night, not much though and my stomach has hurt but my stomach did hurt before that, I've been having gas pains cause of my acid reflux. I'm not sure if swallowing the toothpaste made it worse? Should I go to the hospital?

Unless you swallowed more than what you normally put on a toothbrush, you will be fine. It would take a lot of toothpaste to be harmful.

I only swallowed a tiny bit of what was on the toothbrush so hopefully I'm alright.

Don't worry it's only temporary

im sorry you only have 48 hours to live

Yes. It is very common for things that you use for your oral hygiene to be extremely poisonous. Pacifiers and chewing gum have large amounts of poison too.

Of course you're not poisoned, it wouldn't be safe for something that's put in your mouth to poison you when swallowed with such a small amount, especially something that little kids use every day and have a good chance of swallowing.

I'm sorry..

You'll be fine. You'd have to shallow a large amount for it to really harm you.

You might feel bad after swallowing, but it's nothing to worry about. I've been doing it for quite a while and you get used to it.
You should move on to bigger brushes when you feel ready. I'm already there, because I'm worth it.

You have no chance to survive make your time.

Toothpaste contain Mintrolites (the stuff that makes it taste minty and fresh) if they get into your blood stream via digestion, open cuts, injection, or sexually transmitted then they can infect your cells causing them to absorb extra oxygen which may cause suffocation. If you feel a minty freshness in your breath, then contact a doctor immediately!

Anything can be poisoning if you swallow too much of it, even water

Fortunately for you, the amount on you toothbrush is hardly anything to worry about.

You'll respawn. Don't worry.

im reading the warning labels of the toothpaste i have...not looking good....

dont heat the whole tube... otherwise youll survive

just might have a stomach ache for a bit

Fluoride accumulates in the body. If you were worried about anything, it would be the long-term use of swallowing a tiny bit of toothpaste every day. That's why they say "rinse mouth with water thoroughly".

But no, I've swallowed it before, burnt like hell in my stomach, that was it...

I do it fairly often, I've built up som sort of immunity or something.

I used to swallow the paste itself from Crest toothpaste a lot when I was younger because it tasted so good. I never got sick from it so you should be ok.

I'll bet you could even eat an entire tube of toothpaste and still be fine.
