Special Precautions
For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes. Do not use for acne. Do not use under waterproof bandages.
Avoid large amounts, occlusion and prolonged treatment.
Adjunct Therapy: As soap may irritate the skin, cleanse with a soap alternative eg, Pinetarsol gel or QV wash. As prolonged use is not advisable, use alternatives eg, Egoderm ointment (for soothing effect), or Egoderm cream (for emollient effect if the skin is dry) for continued control if long-term therapy is required. To help prevent recurrence, use QV cream.
Use in Pregnancy & Lactation: Prolonged use should be avoided. Consult a doctor if pregnant or breastfeeding.
Use in Children: Do not use on children under 2 years except under medical supervision.
Infants: Prolonged use should be avoided as adrenal suppression may occur in infants.
