Listerine ? Swallow ? Use ?

Question

Ok i was wonder if its ok to rinse your mouth with water after spitting out the listerine ?

then if swallowing a bit wont make you puke or like hurt you ?

Answer 1

like someone else said, get a non-alocholic mouthwash. listerine may kill germs, but then it dries out your mouth which is counterproductive. plus it tastes like shite (which doesn't 'prove it works').

Answer 2

I always rinse my mouth after using mouth wash because in my religion we don't drink alcohol, so I don't want to risk swallowing any.  It won't hurt you not to, but I always like to rinse.  Try not to swallow though, it's not really good for you.

Answer 3

It contains alcohol, a little bit won't hurt you, but swallowing about half would do some damage.

Answer 4

dadfs

Answer 5

naw....thats the same thing i do.....there was this chick on intervention that drank it purposely to get drunk......she still didnt have liver damage

Answer 6

Use a different mouthwash!  Yes, you can rinse with water after Listerine, but why not use Reach restoring mouthwash that is more effective and tastes better (I like the cinnamon).  You don't need to have so much alcohol in a mouthwash--it's irritating.

It doesn't have to taste like household cleaner to be effective!  

Answer 7

swallowing listerine is like swallowing toothpaste, you don't want to do it, but a little bit won't hurt. If the listerine tingles a little, you can use a glass of water to rinse.

Answer 8

rinsing it with water is fine :]

i do that

Answer 9

sure -but why??  if Listerine is too strong for you, get something friendlier to the mouth.
