Contraindications

- [SALICYLATE ALLERGY] or [NSAID ALLERGY] or to any of the components of this medicine.

- Although local administration minimizes the risks derived from its systemic use, topical application, in large areas of the skin, in open wounds, mucous membranes or eczematous skin, for a prolonged period and with the use of occlusive dressings, can cause systemic effects, so it is worth remembering that its use is not recommended in patients who have presented allergic reactions (rhinitis, asthma, pruritus, angioedema, urticaria, shock or others), caused by acetylsalicylic acid or other NSAIDs due to the possibility of cross-hypersensitivity.

Patient Advice

- Avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes.

- Do not use with occlusive dressings or apply simultaneously to the same area as other topical preparations.

- Do not use for prolonged periods or on large areas.

- Use only on intact skin, not on open wounds, mucous membranes or eczematous skin.

- Do not expose the treated area to the sun.

- Wash your hands after each application.

Special warnings

- If symptoms persist for more than 7 days or irritation or worsening occurs, the patient's clinical situation should be evaluated.

Interactions

They have not been described for cutaneous use, since very low systemic concentrations of the drug are achieved, but it will be assessed whether they should be used in conjunction with other topical analgesics.

Pregnancy

Safety has not been established during pregnancy. Use in these circumstances should be based on medical judgment, assessing the benefit/risk, as the components can be absorbed systemically through the skin, causing systemic effects.

Lactation

Safety during breastfeeding has not been established. Although systemic absorption is very low when applied cutaneously, the preparation should not be used during breastfeeding unless medically necessary, as the components can cross the placental barrier.

Children

Not recommended for use in children under 12 years of age.

Adverse reactions

- [ERYTHEMA], [PRURITUS], sensation of [SKIN IRRITATION] at the application site and local allergic sensitization, effects that subside upon discontinuation of application.

Overdose

- Symptoms: Prolonged application and/or application to large areas may cause salicylate poisoning (dizziness, vomiting, ringing in the ears, blurred vision, drowsiness), in which case you should stop taking the medication and go to a medical center.

- Treatment: In case of accidental ingestion, induce vomiting and/or gastric lavage or symptomatic treatment according to medical criteria.
