It should also be avoided in cases of secondary infection at the affected area or in infants under 3 months of age. Before using this medication, individuals who have experienced allergic reactions in the past, have large or deep wounds, should consult a doctor or pharmacist. Patients receiving treatment from a doctor or those with wounds on mucosal surfaces, sepsis, epilepsy, or issues with heart or liver function should also consult a specialist. If any allergic symptoms such as skin rash, redness, or itching occur during use, discontinue immediately and consult a physician. If symptoms such as blood pressure drop, facial pallor, abnormal pulse, or respiratory depression occur, discontinue use and seek appropriate treatment. Careful observation is required since abnormal symptoms in the central nervous system such as tremors, convulsions, drowsiness, dizziness, nervous irritability, or loss of consciousness may occur. Caution is also needed as heart suppression may cause hypotension or decreased heart rate. This medication must be used according to the prescribed method and dosage and is for external use only; it should never be ingested. Care should be taken to ensure that the adhesive surface does not come into direct contact with the affected area, and the affected area must be kept clean. For individuals with sensitive skin, it is recommended not to use continuously on the same area. This medication should only be used for minor symptoms, and it should not be applied to the eyes or around the eyes. If it comes into contact with the eyes, rinse immediately with water and seek ophthalmic treatment. Long-term use should be avoided, especially in children, and it should be used with caution under parental guidance. When used in conjunction with antiarrhythmic drugs, be cautious as adverse reactions may increase. Pregnant women or those who might become pregnant should use this medication only when the benefits outweigh the risks. This drug may be transmitted through breast milk, but it is believed to be safe for infants at therapeutic doses.
