Magic mouthwash is a generic combination of three ingredients used in hospitals to help prevent mouth pain from chemotherapy or radiation therapy. It consists of Benadryl, lidocaine and Maalox to help coat and numb the oral cavity. I am unaware of any ill effects from regular use of this formulation.

Magic Mouthwash is a common name for a mixture of 2 or more drugs, in a liquid form, usually prescribed for mouth pain or infection. Side effects just depend upon what ingredients are in the mixture. Some common ingredients are: nystatin (antifungal), benadryl liquid (antihistamine), tetracycline (antibiotic), mylanta (antacid), hydrocortisone (steroid), dexamethasone (steroid), prednisone (steroid), lidocaine (anaesthetic). If you don't know what ingredients are in the mouthwash, ask the pharmacist who prepared it.

Drinking Listerine or any other mouthwash is very dangerous. It is often drank by alcoholics who either because of financial or legal reasons (Sunday liquor bans, etc) cannot otherwise obtain alcohol. Listerine does contain ethanol (beverage alcohol), however it contains several toxic additives like thymol and methyl salicylate. There have been several reported fatalities from individuals ingesting mouthwash for the purpose of getting drunk.
