Wait, isopropyl alcohol is toxic even just for external use? I use it as a hand sanitizer daily.
No, I haven't heard anything about that and I did some quick searching and couldn't find anything relevant either. Basically don't drink it or dump gallons of it in your local river.
It's no longer recommended for wound disinfection because it kills healthy cells. Same with hydrogen peroxide.
Don't take a literal bath in a tub of it. It takes a lot to be dangerous, far more than with methyl alcohol

If you wash it off, it's ok.
You can't drink it.
