CONTRAINDICATIONS

- [ALLERGY TO SALICYLATES] or [ALLERGY TO NSAIDs] or to any of the components of this medicine.
- Although local administration minimizes the risks derived from its systemic use, topical application, on large areas of the skin, on open wounds, mucous membranes or eczematous skin, for a long time and with the use of occlusive bandages, can cause systemic effects. Therefore, it is worth remembering that its use is not recommended in patients who have had allergic reactions (rhinitis, asthma, pruritus, angioedema, urticaria, shock or others), caused by acetylsalicylic acid or other NSAIDs due to the possibility of cross hypersensitivity.

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 in cutaneous use, since very low systemic concentrations of the drug are reached, but it will be evaluated whether it should be used together with other topical analgesics.

PREGNANCY

The safety of use has not been proven during pregnancy. Its use in these circumstances should occur according to medical criteria, assessing its benefit/risk, since the components can be absorbed systemically through the skin causing systemic effects.

LACTATION

The safety of use has not been proven during breastfeeding. Although systemic absorption is very small due to cutaneous use, the preparation should not be used during lactation unless medical advice is given, since the components can cross the placental barrier.

CHILDREN

Its use is not recommended in children under 12 years of age.

ADVERSE REACTIONS

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

ADVERSE REACTIONS RELATING TO EXCIPIENTS

- This medicine contains propylene glycol, so it can cause [SKIN IRRITATION].

OVERDOSE

- Symptoms: Its prolonged application and/or in large areas can cause salicylate poisoning (dizziness, vomiting, ringing in the ears, blurred vision, drowsiness), in which case you should stop the medication and go to a medical center.
- Treatment: In case of accidental ingestion, provocation of vomiting and/or gastric lavage or symptomatic treatment according to medical criteria.
