What if you inhaled fumes, such as ammonia or Dettol?

[@daruscole1586]

I am in the United States and our emergency number is 911 but the same things generally apply Always good to check the label before using or even after you buy something. Have the label/container with you when you go for treatment (there is sometimes a note to the physician about petroleum (something).

Excellent video content! Apologies for the intrusion, I am interested in your initial thoughts.

So that the medical team will be able to give proper management (antidote if available) to counter the poison, to avoid mismanagement and prevent the victim from dying.
