Drake is warning fans after a hilarious run-in with some extra-strong German mouthwash.
On Friday, he shared a photo holding a bottle of Dontodent Mundwasser Konzentrat, a concentrated rinse sold in Germany. His caption read: “This will kill anybody under 30 years of age Germany wtf this mouth wash almost did me in.”
Turns out Drake’s dramatic reaction to that German mouthwash might make sense once you read the fine print.
According to the manufacturer, Dontodent Mundwasser Konzentrat is supposed to be diluted before use: “Add 10 squirts to 1/4 glass of water every morning and evening and rinse your mouth for 30 seconds.” The label also warns: “Do not swallow! Do not use undiluted! For adults only.”
The reason? The formula packs a whopping 64% alcohol by volume, plus menthol and eucalyptol — making it way stronger than your typical minty rinse.
Some customers have even criticized the official dosage, with one review saying: “10 squirts in 1/4 glass of water is way too much. Always use 2 squirts in a toothbrush cup.” Another added: “Maybe it should say 10 drops? 10 squirts would be about half a bottle.”
Dontodent is a standard drugstore brand in Germany, but for anyone not used to its extra-potent formula, the taste and strength can definitely come as a shock. Drake didn’t reveal if he actually diluted it — but judging by his reaction, he might’ve gone in undiluted.
Drake’s mouthwash moment comes while he’s keeping things fresh on the road for his and PartyNextDoor’s Some Special Shows 4 U European tour.
After Germany, the 6 God is set to hit Sweden, Denmark, Italy, and France before circling back to Germany for eight more shows to wrap things up.
On top of touring, Drake is gearing up for his next album Iceman, which he’s already teasing through his ICEMAN EPISODE series on YouTube.
