Can i take a bath in rubbing alcohol?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
NO!!! TOXIC!!!: Rubbing alcohol is isopropyl alcohol. It's safe to apply to small amounts of the skin but is toxic in large amounts. Bathing in it is hazardous as you would breathe in the fumes which can cause irritation of mouth and nose, headaches, drowsiness, trouble breathing, fainting and even death. It can also irritate the skin. DO NOT TRY THIS! https://www.erowid.org/chemicals/alcohol/alcohol_info3.shtml
