Precautions

This medication may disrupt the normal bacterial balance in the mouth, so it is recommended not to use it for prolonged periods. Individuals who are allergic to the active ingredient or its components, or who have experienced hypersensitivity reactions, should not use this medication. It is also safe not to use this medication if there are wounds or severe inflammation in the mouth. Individuals with asthma or allergic diseases, or with a history of such conditions, should consult a doctor or pharmacist before using this medication. People who have previously shown allergic reactions to medications should consult a professional before using this medication. Pregnant women or those who may become pregnant should only use this medication when the benefits outweigh the risks, so it is important to consult a doctor. Breastfeeding women should also use this medication cautiously, as it may be passed through breast milk, and expert advice should be sought. Children under 18 years old should not use this medication, as its safety and efficacy are not established. If discoloration occurs on teeth or gums or if irritation of the oral mucosa appears while using this medication, it should be stopped immediately, and a professional should be consulted. Rarely, severe allergic reactions or shock symptoms may occur, so if symptoms such as itchy skin, hives, difficulty breathing, or dizziness arise, usage should be stopped immediately, and medical personnel should be informed. This medication should only be used for oral rinsing and must not be ingested or swallowed. The prescribed dosage and administration must be strictly followed, and antibiotics should be used in conjunction for general bacterial infections. The treatment duration is generally recommended not to exceed 10 days. For patients with both gingivitis and periodontitis, the effectiveness of periodontitis treatment should not be assessed based solely on the condition of the gingivitis after treatment with this medication. Discoloration may occur on teeth, prosthetics, and the tongue, so patients who do not wish for discoloration should exercise caution. Patients using rough or porous prosthetics may experience increased discoloration, so they should use it carefully and may need to replace their prosthetics in some cases. If using diluted, it should be diluted just before use and used immediately.
