Summary

Adam's Polishes LLC is recalling approximately 3,441 gallons of its Alcohol Based Hand Sanitizer (isopropyl alcohol 75% v/v) because FDA analysis found certain lots contain methanol. Methanol, or wood alcohol, is a toxic substance that should not be used in hand sanitizers. The recall affects four different container sizes, ranging from 4-ounce spray bottles to 1-gallon jugs, which were distributed nationwide across the United States.

Risk

Methanol exposure can result in nausea, vomiting, headache, blurred vision, permanent blindness, seizures, coma, permanent damage to the nervous system, or death. While the product is intended for topical use on hands, methanol poisoning can occur through skin absorption or accidental ingestion.
