<P> In the United States, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) controls antimicrobial handsoaps and sanitizers as over-the - counter drugs (OTC) because they are intended for topical anti-microbial use to prevent disease in humans .

According to the American Association of Poison Control Centers, there were nearly 12,000 cases of hand sanitizer ingestion in 2006 . If ingested, alcohol - based hand sanitizers can cause alcohol poisoning in small children .

This would include hand antiseptic products containing alcohol and triclosan . </P> <P> Consumer alcohol - based hand sanitizers, and health care hand alcohol or alcohol hand antiseptic agents, are antiseptic products used to avoid transmission of pathogens . These exist in liquid, foam, and easy - flowing gel formulations . The level of alcohol varies between 60% and 95% . </P>
