Call your doctor for advice.  Is it a rounded magnet or does it have square edges?  If it is rounded and he doesn't eat any other magnets (this part is very important, because you don't want him to have two magnets trying to find each other through his intestinal walls), it might simply pass through.  But a doctor should be called.
