The first Total Care I got was a sample on a bottle of regular Listerine. It seemed to be more gentle than the regular Listerine so I purchased a second bottle of Listerine Total Care plus Whitening. The anti-freeze in my car is less abrasive than this. It took me several hours to be able to function after I used the product. Only used the contents twice before I hit the Internet to do some research. I wish I had researched it before I spend $6 on this drain cleaner. There is something amiss here. The product is not safe.
