Precautions

This medication should not be used by patients who are allergic to its ingredients or have previously experienced allergic reactions. It is also safer not to apply it to areas with perforated eardrums or around the eyes. Caution is advised in cases of very severe wounds or burns, as well as in puncture wounds or animal bites. If allergic symptoms such as skin rashes or itching appear during use, discontinue use immediately and consult a professional. Long-term use of this medication may lead to kidney function problems or hearing loss, so it is advisable to avoid prolonged use. It should be used strictly according to the prescribed methods and dosages, especially under the supervision of a guardian for children. If symptoms do not improve after 5 to 6 days of use, it is important to stop use and consult a doctor or pharmacist. If allergic reactions cause redness, swelling, or blistering of the skin, use should be stopped immediately. Due to the risk of resistant bacteria or worsening infections, appropriate treatment should be sought for any abnormal symptoms. It is safe not to use it on areas of severe burns or ulcers for extended periods. This medication is for external use only and must not be taken orally. After use, it should be stored out of reach of children, away from direct sunlight, and kept in a cool, dry place with the lid tightly closed.
