Local Coburg doctor answers questions and gives unsolicited advice.
Will my kid get sick from licking hand sanitizer off their hands?
Licking hand sanitiser won’t harm a child but can be dangerous if they drink a larger amount. Hand sanitiser contains a high concentration of alcohol which could cause alcohol poisoning. This can drop blood sugar levels, cause decreased consciousness and breathing troubles.
