Hand Sanitizers Containing Methanol or 1-Propanol

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has fined many companies and manufacturering companies for producing and selling hand sanitizers that have the following ingredientsmethanol or 1-propanol, both of which are toxic to human health and neither are approved for hand-washing by the EPA:

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