Stabilizer can effect the pH some but usually it is a very minor amount. You should be able to swim the same day.

What happens when swim with to much stabilizer the pool?

There are no known ill effects from too much stabilizer in the pool. Most health departments require draining if stabilizer is more than 100 ppm.

It was previously thought that high stabilizer levels resulted in chlorine lock, but that has been proven to be false.
