Best Answer

The chemical name for the material in rubbing alcohol is "isopropyl alcohol" or "isopropanol." The effects of excessive exposure to this chemical include skin flushing, headache, dizziness, nause, and vomiting. It also depresses the central nervous system, causing anesthesia and coma, and in severe situations excess exposure can be fatal.

Isopropyl alcohol is converted in the liver to acetone, which will also depress the central nervous system.

Typically the type of alcohol in rubbing alcohol is ISOPROPYL ALCOHOL.

If someone were to drink this, the body would convert it into acetone. Acetone can cause problems by itself, not exactly alcohol poisoning, but acetone poisoning.

Will hurt you if you accidentally get rubbing alcohol in your needle and inject it will it hurt you?

I wouldn't worry about it. The rubbing alcohol will just go through your bloodstream, and eventually leave. It shouldn't seriously harm you in any way. For example, before nurse's inject needles/vaccines into your bloodstream, notice how they always put rubbing alcohol on your skin to protect against infection? That absorbs into your skin like a sponge, and it doesn't harm you! Surely it's nothing you would have to call poison control about.
