This medication is an external preparation made from flurbiprofen, and it should not be used in certain patients. Firstly, individuals who have had allergic reactions to this medication or other flurbiprofen preparations should not use it. Additionally, individuals who have experienced asthma attacks due to aspirin or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs should avoid this medication, as it may exacerbate their asthma. In patients with bronchial asthma, caution is needed as this medication can trigger asthma attacks. After applying this medication, symptoms such as redness, rash, itching, or burning sensation may occur. If such symptoms develop, use should be discontinued immediately. Furthermore, if initial symptoms of an asthma attack such as wheezing or difficulty breathing occur, use must be stopped immediately, as asthma attacks can occur within hours after application. This medication is for symptomatic relief of inflammation and pain and is not intended for treating the underlying cause. If there is a skin infection, it may be concealed further by this medication, so when used for inflammation associated with infection, antibacterial or antifungal agents should be used together, and the condition should be closely monitored. When using this medication for chronic conditions such as degenerative arthritis, other treatment methods should also be considered, and care should be taken to monitor for side effects. During pregnancy, especially during the first two trimesters, it is advisable to avoid using this medication unless absolutely necessary, and if it must be used, it should be at the minimum dosage and for a short duration only. In the last trimester of pregnancy, because it can affect the fetus's heart, lungs, and kidneys and pose risks of bleeding and delayed labor, it should absolutely not be used. Safety of this medication in children has not been adequately established, so its use should be avoided. In elderly patients, careful observation of skin condition is necessary during use.
