Patients with eczematous external otitis who have perforations in the eardrum may experience delayed healing when using this medication, so they should avoid it.

If abnormal reactions such as dryness, peeling, burning, tingling, redness, or inflammation occur on the skin during use, stop using it immediately and consult a specialist. Long-term or extensive use may cause thinning of the skin or side effects such as blood vessel dilation and acne, so caution is necessary.

It should be used only for herpes labialis around the lips, and care should be taken if distinguishing from bacterial or fungal infections is difficult.
