This medication contains flurbiprofen and is important not to use in certain patients. First, patients with a history of allergies to this medication or similar ingredients should not use it. Additionally, patients with a history of asthma attacks known as aspirin asthma may experience asthma attacks if they use this medication, so they should avoid it. Patients with bronchial asthma should use this medication with caution as there is a risk of asthma attacks. If symptoms such as redness, rash, itching, or a burning sensation appear on the skin while using this medication, it should be discontinued immediately. If there is difficulty breathing or symptoms like wheezing when breathing, it may be an asthma attack, and use should be stopped immediately and medical attention sought. This medication helps alleviate symptoms but is not a treatment for the underlying cause, so this should be understood when using it. When there is a skin infection, it may mask the infection, so it should be used with antibiotics or antifungals for inflammation accompanied by infection, and the condition should be closely monitored. When using it for chronic conditions such as degenerative arthritis, other treatment methods should also be considered along with drug therapy, and careful attention should be paid to whether side effects occur. During early and mid-pregnancy, this medication should not be used unless absolutely necessary, and if it must be used, the dosage should be reduced and the treatment duration kept short. In the late stages of pregnancy, this medication can harm the fetus's heart and kidneys, and increase bleeding during delivery and delay labor, so it should not be used. The safety of this medication in children has not been sufficiently confirmed, so its use is not recommended. In the elderly, it should be used cautiously while monitoring the condition of the skin. This medication should not be applied to damaged skin or mucous membranes, or areas of eczema or rashes, and it is advisable to clean sweat off the affected area before application.
