Not is a small amount. I wouldn't think so. Might have a very nasty taste in your mouth and throat for a bit. Drink something hot and maybe it will send it on through faster. +5

Your gona have clear sinuses all day LOL but i don't think its poisonous. Otherwise whey would it be rubbed on the skin? If you start to feel ill call a poison line, or read the back of the container to see if its harmfull. Good Luck!
