I would think so. Why would you even be sniffing it??
AnswerI guess people do it because it smells so good and do get sort of a high from it. I know it's not good for your health but it is addictive and very hard to quit.
AnswerYes, sniffing rubbing alcohol is very dangerous, it can cause bad headaches, and very addictive.
Answer
My mother used to give me rubbing alcohol in a handkerchief to sniff in order to relieve runny noses during the 70's. This kind of practice was wildly used in developing countries back then who didn't have access to the kinds of medications we have today. No doctor has diagnosed me with brain damage as a result.
It is very dangerous. It is a more common addiction than people realize. More popularly it is called "huffing". Huffing is done with a lot of different substances, alcohol just happens to be one type used. It is more dangerous than drinking the alcohol because the fumes go straight to the brain. It can cause permanent damage. People usually develop addictions because they enjoy the effects of whatever drug it is that they are using.
