Instructions for use

The total dose should not be exceeded without consulting a doctor or pharmacist.

How should it be used?
Apply the medicine to the affected area(s) of skin. Then massage the medicine in gently. Do not use under constricting bandages or on large areas of skin. Avoid accidental contact with mucous membranes, eyes, and injured, inflamed, or open skin areas.

Duration of use?
The duration of use depends on the nature of the symptoms and/or the course of the disease. Do not use the gel for longer than 7 days without consulting your doctor.

Overdose?
If the medicine is used as directed, no symptoms of overdose are known. If large amounts are accidentally swallowed, consult a doctor immediately. Headaches, ringing in the ears, dizziness, nausea, and vomiting may occur, among other things.

In general, pay careful attention to the dosage, especially for infants, young children, and the elderly. If in doubt, ask your doctor or pharmacist about any side effects or precautions.

The dosage prescribed by a doctor may differ from the information in the package leaflet. Since the doctor adjusts it individually, you should therefore use the medicine according to his or her instructions.

Mode of action

How does the active ingredient in the medicine work?

The active ingredient helps with allergies, relieves itching, and has a pain-relieving effect. It suppresses the effects of the body's own substance histamine. Histamine, as a neurotransmitter, plays an important role in the development of inflammation and allergic reactions. By blocking this neurotransmitter, the allergic reaction process is interrupted.
