Dosage Regimen
| The method of application and dosage regimen for a specific drug depend on its form of release and other factors. The optimal dosage regimen is determined by the doctor. It is necessary to strictly adhere to the compliance of the dosage form of a specific drug with the indications for use and dosage regimen. |
Apply externally only. Use a thin layer on the affected skin area.
Alternatively, apply a bandage: impregnate 5-6 layers of gauze with the liniment and place it on the affected area.
Follow the frequency of application and treatment duration as directed by a physician.
Adverse Reactions
Allergic reactions are possible. These may include localized skin rash, itching, redness, or swelling at the application site.
Discontinue use immediately and consult a physician if any signs of a hypersensitivity reaction occur.
Drug Interactions
No specific drug interactions with other topical or systemic medications have been formally established.
Avoid concurrent use with other topical preparations (ointments, creams, lotions) on the same skin area to prevent unpredictable effects or altered absorption.
Inform your physician about all medications you are using before initiating treatment.
Contraindications
- Hypersensitivity to Xeroform (bismuth tribromophenolate), tar, or any other component of the liniment.
Avoid application on large areas of damaged skin or severe burn surfaces without specific medical supervision.
Overdose
Systemic absorption after topical application is unlikely; overdose is not expected.
Excessive or prolonged application on large skin areas, especially with impaired skin barrier, may theoretically lead to bismuth absorption.
In case of suspected overdose, discontinue use and seek medical attention. Treatment is symptomatic.
Storage Conditions
Store at 2°C (36°F) to 25°C (77°F). Keep in original packaging, protected from light. Keep out of reach of children.
