Misma pregunta para usted, ella o él 0:43

USTED, ELLA, y ÉL share the same conjugation of the verb. Therefore…

¿Ingirió algo? = Did you ingest something? = Did s/he ingest something?

USTED, ELLA, y ÉL also share the same indirect object pronoun, LE. Therefore…

¿Le duele la cabeza? = Does your head hurt? = Does her/his head hurt?

Envenenamiento2:26

El veneno
The poison

El envenenamiento / la intoxicación
The poisoning

Cuidado con la palabra intoxicación2:56

La intoxicación se refiere a la presencia de una sustancia en el cuerpo que le hace daño. Puede intoxicarse con un producto de limpieza, una droga, un medicamento, alcohol, un alimento echado a perder o incluso un antígeno, en el caso de una alergia.

Exposición a sustancias nocivas3:46

una sustancia venenosa / tóxica / nociva
a poisonous / toxic / harmful substance

DAÑINO/A can also be used to say HARMFUL. 

ingerir 
to ingest 

inhalar
to inhale

estar expuesto/a (a)
to be exposed (to)

tener contacto con la piel
to have contact with the skin

Preguntas5:00

¿Estuvo expuesta a alguna sustancias nociva?
Was she exposed to a harmful substance?

¿Estuvo expuesto a algún veneno?
Was he exposed to a poison?

¿Lo inhaló?
Did she inhale it?

¿Lo ingirió?
Did she ingest it?

When we conjugate INGERIR in the preterite tense, the E > I for the third person conjugations. Él / Ella / Usted ingirió…  Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes ingirieron… 

¿Tuvo contacto con su piel?
Did it have contact with her skin?

Note, in Spanish, when the subject = “it,” we rarely mention it. It is simply understood. 

a propósito 
on purpose

¿Lo ingirió a propósito?
Did you ingest it on purpose?

por accidente
by/on accident

¿Lo inhaló por accidente?
Did she inhale it by accident?

¿Ingirió algún veneno?
Did he ingest a poison?

¿Inhaló alguna sustancia tóxica?
Did you inhale a toxic substance?

¿Ingirió alguna sustancia nociva?
Did she ingest a harmful substance?

¿Inhaló alguna sustancia venenosa?
Did you inhale a poisonous substance?
