Consultation with a doctor or pharmacist may be necessary before using this medication if there is a history of allergic reactions to drugs or cosmetics. Patients with renal insufficiency should avoid extensive or prolonged use of this medication, as there is a risk of toxicity if absorbed extensively through the skin.

If symptoms such as rash, redness, or itching occur while using this medication, immediately discontinue use and consult a doctor or pharmacist. Prolonged or extensive use can cause dermatitis or ulcers, so if such symptoms arise, stop using the medication. Even contact with normal skin may produce irritation, so caution is advised. If symptoms do not improve after several applications, it is advisable to consult a specialist. This medication is intended for topical use only, and the prescribed method and dosage must be strictly followed. If the skin is infected, damp, or has been broken, treat these conditions first before using this medication. Exercise caution when applying to large areas due to the risk of side effects. Avoid contact with skin outside the treatment area, especially around the eyes, nose, and mouth. If it gets into the eyes, rinse thoroughly with plenty of water and follow a doctor's instructions. If accidentally ingested, consult a specialist immediately. Pregnant women or those who may become pregnant should only use this medication after carefully considering its benefits and risks. Additionally, since this medication may be excreted in breast milk, nursing mothers should avoid applying it to the breast area.
