Is your hand sanitizer safe?
Hand sanitizer plays a key role in protecting us from COVID-19, but you need to choose this product carefully. Some hand sanitizers contain a toxic substance called methanol, which can cause serious health problems. To find out if your hand sanitizer contains methanol, scroll to the bottom of this FDA page, FDA updates on hand sanitizers with methanol.
During the coronavirus pandemic, the AAD's Coronavirus Resource Center will help you find information about changes in dermatology and how you can continue to care for your skin, hair, and nails.
