Hey guys, I often use dry skin lotion, which contains something called "Cetyl Alcohol."


When I was putting my pills away, my hands were full of lotion, which means I probably got some in my mouth.

Is this a relapse?

Thanks

No, acetyl alcohol is not the same as alcohol you drink so no, this is NOT a relapse at all.

No, I wouldn't consider it a relapse, though I totally get the concern. Stuff like that worries me too.

I have to agree with the other posts NO it is not a relapse. Never hurts to ask, just keep up the good work!

Cetyl alcohol is not that type of alcohol. it's an entirely different type of chemical.
Now, if you drank a bottle of lotion trying to get a buzz, I would call that a relapse...
You're fine.

Ok, I found there might have been soap (which may contain cetyl alcohol)on my toothbrush. Washed off my toothbrush and brushed my teeth.

My dad agrees, he said its not the same type of alcohol
