Medicines that contain alcohol?!
Question: Are they haram?
Answers: Are they haram?
If it's an emergency situation, or there are no other alternatives, then it is not haram. But it is best to find an alternative if there are any available. Allahu alim.

If you meant: do they harm?
My answer is: No, they don't as long as you follow the directions in the bottle.
I understand ethyl alcohol is haram, but other alcohols - propanol, etc used in external medications
