• Alcohols — An extensive class of organic compounds containing one or more hydroxyl (-OH) functional groups bound directly to sp3 hybridized carbon atoms. This category includes a broad range of substances with diverse properties, from simple volatile molecules like methanol and ethanol to complex polyhydroxyl structures, heavily utilized in chemical synthesis, pharmacy, and industry.
• Alcohol therapy — The therapeutic use of alcohol (especially purified ethanol) as a curative or palliative agent; a historical or emergency medical method whereby alcoholic solutions are administered externally (as a disinfectant, antiseptic, or counterirritant) or internally, in specific and strictly controlled cases, such as an antidote in acute methanol or ethylene glycol poisoning.
