This medication is not safe for patients with skin infections caused by bacteria, fungi, viruses, or animals. Patients with hypersensitivity to this medication or a history of allergic reactions should avoid using it. It is advisable not to use this medication in patients with otitis externa who have a perforated tympanic membrane, or in cases of ulcers, severe burns, or frostbite as these may delay skin healing. This medication should not be used in patients with perioral dermatitis, common acne, rosacea, or itching around the anus or genital area. It should not be administered to children under 2 years of age. Women who are pregnant, may become pregnant, or are breastfeeding, as well as infants, young children, and the elderly should use this medication with caution, particularly if they have an allergy to propylene glycol, as caution is particularly important. During the use of this medication, the deterioration of skin infections or the occurrence of new infections may arise; thus, it is crucial to immediately discontinue use and seek appropriate treatment if symptoms develop. Prolonged or extensive use may cause skin thinning, discoloration, acne, rashes, and other side effects; therefore, it’s essential to regulate the amount and duration of use. Using large amounts or in conjunction with occlusive dressings can have systemic effects; hence, periodic blood tests should be conducted to check for side effects. Caution is needed when using it around the eyes due to the risk of increased intraocular pressure or glaucoma; if blurred vision or visual disturbances occur, immediate consultation with an ophthalmologist is necessary. For eczema or dermatitis accompanied by skin infections, this medication should not be used alone but in conjunction with antibacterial or antifungal agents. It is advisable to discontinue this medication as soon as symptoms improve, and should symptoms worsen or not improve, usage should be stopped, and a physician consulted. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should avoid long-term or extensive use of this medication, and if necessary, it should be used cautiously under a physician’s judgment. Children and the elderly are at a higher risk for side effects, hence greater care is required in their use, and it is recommended not to use continuously for more than 3 weeks. This medication is not for ophthalmic use and should be avoided for non-treatment purposes after makeup or shaving. When using occlusive dressings, they must be applied following the physician's instructions, and the affected area should be kept clean to reduce infection risk.
