Patient's question:
Accidentally let the baby drink the desiccant from the thermos cup. When I noticed it, it had been two or three days since the last time it was drunk. At that time, the outer layer of the desiccant's paper had already rotten, but the inner layer hadn't broken. There was also some water leaking down. When I took it out, it was still leaking a bit, and there was still air inside. I asked the customer service, and they said it was carbon. I also checked that it was black ink powder and had no smell. Currently, the baby doesn't have any symptoms.Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described. A four-year-old child accidentally drank the desiccant soaked in water. There are generally three types of desiccants, one is calcium oxide desiccant, and the other is montmorillonite desiccant. The third type is silica gel desiccant. The first type of desiccant is corrosive, while the other two types are non-toxic and harmless to the human body. If this package of desiccant is a food desiccant, then it is non-toxic and harmless to the body.The above is the suggestion for the question "accidentally drank the desiccant soaked in a thermos for the baby." I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
