In a time when one of the most globally consumed products is hand sanitizer, a recall is not something you want to read about.

According to News Center Maine several hand sanitizers have tested positive for methanol contamination. Methanol is toxic when absorbed through the skin and can be deadly when ingested. According to the FDA it is actually young children who are most at risk as come kids accidentally ingest sanitizer and some actually consume it as an alcohol substitute.

If you're experiencing symptoms of methanol toxicity you should seek help immediately. Symptoms can include blurred vision, vomiting, headache, nausea, seizures and even coma, permanent blindness and damage to the central nervous system.
