Precautions

This medication should not be used on areas affected by chickenpox, athlete's foot, tinea, or pustular regions. It should also be avoided on mucous membranes such as the eyes or large areas of the face. Before using this medication, it is important to consult a doctor or pharmacist if you have previously experienced allergic reactions to medications or cosmetics. It is also crucial to consult a specialist if there is extensive skin damage, excessive moisture, or severe wounds. Women who are pregnant or may become pregnant should definitely consult before using this medication. This medication contains corticosteroids, so using it in large amounts for long periods can be risky. If a fungal or bacterial infection occurs on the skin, or if changes in the skin due to steroids are observed, use should be stopped immediately and medical advice sought. If the skin becomes irritated or a rash develops, use should also be discontinued. Caution is required as prolonged or broad-area use may affect the body's hormonal functions. If symptoms do not improve after 5 to 6 days of use, it is advisable to consult a specialist. If used on the eyes, vision may become blurred, so if any abnormal symptoms occur, immediate medical attention should be sought. When using, it is crucial to follow the prescribed method closely, and supervision by a guardian is required when used by children. This medication is for topical use only and should never be ingested. Using systemic or topical steroid preparations can cause vision problems, so if blurred vision or visual abnormalities occur, an ophthalmologist should be consulted. When storing, keep it out of reach of children, store in a cool place away from direct sunlight. The medication should not be transferred from its original container to another container, and it must be tightly closed to maintain its quality.
