What about intoxicants?

Another argument is that if 6:145 encompasses all dietary prohibitions, what about intoxicants? When it comes to dietary prohibitions, there is no amount of pork, carrion, running blood, or animals dedicated to other than God that we are allowed to consume. For instance, I cannot eat a portion of food with trace amounts of pork. However, this is not the case for intoxicants, as there are many toothpastes, mouthwashes, and medicines that contain trace amounts of intoxicants. Yet, there is no amount of toothpaste or mouthwash, if used as intended, that can make me intoxicated. This is why these are different than the dietary prohibitions.
