Precautions

This medicine contains Flurbiprofen, which is used to relieve pain and inflammation. However, it should not be used by those with hypersensitivity to this medicine or a history of aspirin-induced asthma. Patients with asthma should use this medicine cautiously as it may trigger asthma attacks. If skin symptoms such as redness, rash, itching, or burning sensation occur during use, discontinue use immediately. Additionally, if initial symptoms of asthma such as dyspnea, wheezing, or dry rales appear, stop using the medication and consult a healthcare professional. This medicine serves as symptomatic relief and does not treat the underlying cause. When using on inflamed areas accompanied by skin infections, appropriate antibacterial or antifungal agents should be used concurrently, and the condition should be closely monitored. When used for chronic conditions like degenerative arthritis, other treatment methods should be considered alongside medication, and careful observation for the occurrence of side effects is essential. In the early and mid stages of pregnancy, it should be used only in small doses and for a short duration when absolutely necessary, while it should not be used in the late stages of pregnancy due to potential risks to the fetus and mother. It has limited safety data for pediatric use and should be used cautiously. In the elderly, it should be used carefully with close monitoring of skin status. Do not use on damaged skin, mucous membranes, or areas with eczema or rash, and clean the sweating area thoroughly before application.
