Raon Cream (Chlorhexidine Gluconate Solution)

Adult dosage

Apply an appropriate amount to the affected area several times a day.

This medication contains chlorhexidine and is a disinfectant for use on the skin. This medication should not be used on patients with hypersensitivity to chlorhexidine or on mucosal areas such as the eyes, vagina, bladder, or oral cavity. Particular caution is needed as it may cause corneal damage if it comes into contact with the eyes, and if it does get into the eyes, it should be rinsed immediately with clean water. Patients with a history or family history of allergies such as asthma should use this medication with caution. This medication contains propylene glycol, and caution is also necessary for those allergic to this ingredient. If symptoms such as nausea, discomfort, cold sweat, dizziness, shortness of breath, or redness occur during use, usage should be immediately stopped and medical advice sought. Rarely, shock reactions may occur, so sufficient monitoring of these symptoms is necessary. Hypersensitivity reactions such as rash, hives, or irritation may occur, and usage should be discontinued if symptoms develop. Photosensitivity reactions may also occur, so caution is advised when using on areas exposed to sunlight. It is advisable for pregnant or breastfeeding women to avoid using this medication, and for those who are potentially pregnant, usage should also be avoided. This medication is for external use only and should not be applied to extensive wounds or burn areas for safety. Especially, in neonates or premature infants, there is a risk of systemic side effects, so usage should be avoided. When used over a long duration or on large areas, care should be taken to avoid inhaling vapors. When disinfecting medical instruments that have been contaminated with organic materials such as blood or pus, they must be thoroughly rinsed with this medication to maintain sterilization efficacy. Using with soap may reduce the sterilizing effect, so it is necessary to wash off soap completely before use. Due to absorption by fabrics or cloths, fresh solutions should be supplied to maintain effective concentrations during use. This medication should not be used for disinfecting mucosal areas such as the vagina or vulva.
