Hand Sanitizers Containing Methanol or 1-Propanol

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has cited many companies and manufacturering companies for making and selling hand sanitizers that contain the followingmethanol or 1-propanol, both of which are toxic to human health and neither one were approved for hand-washing by the EPA:

• Ethanol found in spirits used for consumption, methanol mostly used to manufacture fuels, solvents and antifreeze. Referred to as “wood alcohol” or “methyl alcohol”, methanol is colorless, highly ignitable and very poisonous if consumed.
• Used in industry, some cosmetics and antiseptics, 1-Propanol is used as a multi-purpose solvent. It’s highly ignitable, harmful when congested and can damage your eyes. Respiratory irritation and central nervous system issues can result from inhalation.

The recalled sanitizers listed here were falsely marked as containing only ethyl alcohol.
