Red Harpic & Blue Harpic are Not to be Mixed : Reader Original Narrative

This warning may help which is received from a lady reader of the website...

Sharing this very important experience with you. Pls take 5 mins to read
this.

Yesterday after my workout I went to take a shower. This is around 8am. I
also wanted to clean the toilet before taking bath, so I put some blue
harpic into the toilet and wash basin. I realised that the bottle got over
and wasn't enough so I opened a fresh bottle of Harpic Bathroom Cleaner
(Red bottle) and put it on top of the blue harpic. A few mins later I
started scrubbing the toilet seats and I inhaled some of the strong fumes.
I continued with the scrubbing and in 2 mins I started coughing. By the
next min I was coughing profusely and I somehow managed to open the window.
I kept coughing and my husband asked me if I needed some water. Even he
didn't suspect it would be something bad.

I continued coughing and my husband then angrily asked me to come out of
the bathroom. I was not able to breathe both from my nose and mouth. And
within few minutes I lost all sense of logic. I somehow opened the door and
came out and went straight to the balcony to catch a breath. The coughing
continued and I was sweating and panting for breath. I felt puckish and my
head was paining badly.

As we considered going to the hospital, I put some water for steam
inhalation. That soothed me a bit. This coughing continued for almost 1
hour.

By 9:30 after multiple rounds of steaming I could sit in one place and take
shallow breaths. By 12 noon I was able to speak normally, breathing was
moderately controlled, and I could drink some hot tea. My mouth still had
some chemical taste though. By 4 pm I was normal, though I had throat
soreness due to coughing. I slept normally at night.

The reason for sharing this is because I didn't know that you should not
mix harpic blue and harpic red!!! Yes it may seem that they both are
similar products but they have different chemical composition. They both
reacted together releasing gaseous fumes which inhaled and that was
dangerous.

I don't have any history of asthma, shortness of breath, allergies, but
just by inhaling these fumes, I felt I was going to die. I shudder at the
thought of what would happen to someone with a prior history.

Some learning:
1.) Don't mix the 2 chemicals EVER!
2.) Always keep the door and window open when using harpic or any bathroom
cleaner
3.) I was able to somewhat recover within an hour, many may not. Make sure
you consult a doctor immediately

Pls spread the word amongst your family and friends so that no one else
makes the mistake I made.

Note:

Red harpic is bathroom cleaner which contains sodium hypochlorite NaOCL.
Blue harpic is a toilet cleaner which contains HCL. When these two
chemicals are mixed, it is released chlorine gas which is very toxic and
life threatening. It can damage respiratory track and will result in lung
injury.
