One of my friends pointed out that isopropyl alcohol isn’t good for people. However, I don’t know if you could get hurt by the amount on three pills, and it’s plausible that it would have evaporated from the pills fairly quickly.

That was my first thought too. So I looked it up. The stuff isn’t good for you but you need a lot to do real harm. And as you say evaporation has worked on the pills already.
As wedrifid pointed out, isopropyl alcohol isn’t bad for you in small amounts. I definitely made sure to let it evaporate, but you can drink the stuff in small amounts and not suffer ill effects, assuming it’s just alcohol and water. IIRC, it’s something like twice as strong and twice as toxic as ethanol… something like that, anyway.
Whoops; thanks for catching that. I knew that… in theory; I am a biochemist myself (well, on my way, anyway—no degree yet, but I love the field and don’t see myself changing).

The biochemist in me is twitching at your use of “ethanol alcohol”. That’s redundant; it’s either “ethanol” or “ethyl alcohol”.
