Probably not, but it could make you sick. It depends also on the quantity taken orally. Most hand sanitizers are around 60% alcohol, a little will not hurt but if you drink an ounce or more, the alcohol alone could cause problems but there are also other ingredients. If someone has swallowed a large amount, contact the poison control center for help.

In the US, you can find the phone number for your local poison control center by using the link in the related links section or call the 800 number associated with the American Association of Poison Control Centers and they can either help or guide you to the proper phone line for your area.

In 1985 Liversnap and Bobert Glensky had an all out ninja duel to the death! Bobert made the first move by cutting his hair and left Liversnap blinded by overexposure to pure awesomeness! But Taylor came out of nowhere and threw Liversnap in the trash! "DAMNIT!", Liversnap screamed. "If only I had my body! I'D KICK SOME BOOTIE!" We never could get Sasquatch to stop crying.

Most hand sanitizers are based on isopropyl alcohol. It is actually pretty healthy, since it can help keep disease organisms from spreading- but it should never be taken internally. Read the label.

No.

Alcohol cleans your hands. You were to get skin cancer if you were to get an infection.
