5) Mucous membranes and/or sites of purulent infection

6) Pregnant women

2. Do not use the following medicines while using this medicine.

There is no literature directly related to the use of this medicine; however, for systemically acting heparin, concomitant use with anticoagulants (coumarin, aspirin, dipyridamole, dextran, streptokinase) may increase the risk of bleeding, so do not use it at the same time as anticoagulants.

3. Do not do the following while using this medicine.

1) Do not apply it around the eyes or to mucous membranes.

2) Take care not to expose the scar to the heat or rays of the sun.

Breastfeeding women

Allergic reactions

6. Other precautions when using this medicine

1) Application to wide areas in children aged 2 to under 12 years, and application in infants under 2 years of age, should follow a doctor's instructions.

2) Because the occlusive effect of a bandage increases penetration of the active ingredients and prevents them from leaving the skin, the method of fixing it with a bandage and applying it overnight is not appropriate for children, especially infants.

3) When it is used in children, use it under the guidance and supervision of a parent or guardian.

7. Storage precautions

1) Keep out of the reach of children.

2) Taking the medicine out of its original container and storing it in another container may cause accidents through misuse or reduce its quality, so keep it in its original container, tightly closed.
