My pops took a sip of rubbing alcohol instead of water by accident when taking his medicine. This is no joke, I'm not that worried because he said that it was only a sip, but hes 78, should I be worried/taking steps here?
I don't really think this is funny..
Call a hospital maybe. Or you could just wait for him to die and get insurance or inheritance.
yeah might wanna head to a hospital, even if its just a sip.
also your dad is 78? woah.
I don't think its too serious unless he drank a lot of it. He will get sick, that's a given, but he probably won't die unless he drank a lot of it.
Still, you should probably take him to a hospital just in case.
Look at the bottle and follow directions given if ingested.
Yea, a sip of alcohol is not healthy the last time I checked.
Especially when an old person drinks it.
Just sit, wait, and see what happens. If he starts getting sick, take him to the hospital
It is actually very dangerous. Why are you asking FP? Call the fucking hospital.
No set up a webcam so we can laugh together as he convulses and dies :D
Since rubbing alcohol is denatured alcohol isn't it undrinkable? I suggest you go to the ER before seeing any effects, just in case.
Ya, go to the Hospital
if your dad is 78, how old are you?
Go to the hospital/read directions on bottle.
You are stupid, read the label or call the hospital/poison control.
How did he not notice the taste?
i assume that since hes not posting ITT hes either at the hospital or his dad died
Call poison control why the hell are you asking facepunch?
Edit: seems like BS how could you possibly be in a situation where you'd mistake rubbing alcohol and water
He'll be fine if it is only one small gulp. In a few minutes, he will start to get diarrhea and/or vomiting , which will hopefully get rid of the "undigested" alcohol.
But just in case, tell him to drink a can of beer (or two). That's how you treat alcohol misconsumption by having more edible alcohol than an inedible alcohol in your body.

You're 19 according to your profile. Woa, so your dad 'made you' when he was 59, ouch.
A retard at my Academy ate a handful of cleaning alchohol hoping it would taste of vodka, he was wrong. He nearly threw up but was fine afterwords

durr
youd probably run away crying if you saw him moaning and dying on cam
I'm going to be 20 on the 22nd, pops is like 20+ years older than my mom, he's always dated younger women. He's good though, I've been keeping a very close eye on him, just a stomach ache.

He's 78... probably alteimers dude.
Either take him to the hospital, or have him induce vomiting.
