Overview Cipladine Ointment

Dermasept Ointment acts as both an antiseptic and disinfectant. It's indicated for treating and preventing wound and cut infections by eliminating harmful microorganisms and inhibiting their proliferation. Dermasept Ointment is for external application only, used precisely as prescribed by your physician. Ensure the affected area is clean and dry before application. Thorough handwashing is essential before and after use. Consistent application maximizes therapeutic benefit; exceeding the recommended dosage won't hasten healing and may increase side effects. Maintaining cleanliness of the affected area enhances its effectiveness. Potential side effects include localized skin irritation, redness, or itching. Persistent side effects warrant medical consultation. Avoid eye contact; rinse with water and seek medical help if contact occurs. Discontinue use immediately and seek medical attention if an allergic reaction develops (symptoms may include rash, facial or lip swelling, throat swelling, breathing difficulties, dizziness, fainting, or nausea).
