Abstract

Recreational use of sanitizing alcohols, like rubbing alcohol, is a topic every emergency and intensive care Physician should be familiar with. Overindulgence in these substances can lead to ethanol toxicity. However, it's crucial for clinicians to recognize that these products often contain various other chemicals with harmful effects, such as methylene blue. In our analysis of the components of one such product, we present a case report of a patient who experienced alcohol poisoning after consuming it. Fortunately, the patient fully recovered after a brief stay in the intensive care unit. Our conclusion is that the oral ingestion of methylene blue in this product didn't exhibit significant or concerning clinical features. Therefore, the approach to managing such cases should be supportive, akin to dealing with ethanol toxicity.
