Depends how unpleasant taking of the pills would be and what would happen if you didn't take them. I guess the chance of substantial negative health effect would be negligible even without disinfecting them in alcohol, but it may not be worth to do something unpleasant if the gains are small, even if you know that the unpleasantness isn't tied to actual risk.
But to make a non-ambiguous suggestion, take them.
The unpleasantness just arises from my fear that my precautions have not been enough. I'm glad to see that you think even non-disinfected pills would be okay; that was my guess as well, but I wanted to make sure. I know someone who drank toilet water and never got sick, so I'm almost positive these pills are okay, now.
