Parents issue terrifying warning after daughters die on vacation

Spotting the symptoms of methanol poisoning is not always easy, and if they begin in an unfamiliar and foreign place, they might be even harder to spot.

It is important to get medical attention immediately if you think you have methanol poisoning. You are at risk of blindness, coma, and the prospect of death increases by the hour.

This is due to the fact that your body begins to metabolize bootleg alcohol in just a few hours, and hence your organs flood with toxic byproducts from methanol, which cause irreversible damage.

Medical experts say that it is imperative to get medical help right away so treatment can begin. Treatment is most effective when you get help within the first 10 to 30 hours of consuming the product.
