Dermasept Ointment provides antiseptic and disinfectant action, treating and preventing wound and cut infections. It eliminates harmful microorganisms and inhibits their proliferation, thus safeguarding the affected area. Dermasept Ointment is for external application only, strictly as directed by your physician. Ensure the affected area is clean and dry before application. Always wash your hands meticulously before and after use for optimal hygiene. Consistent application maximizes therapeutic benefits.

Potential side effects include localized skin irritation, redness, or itching. Persistent symptoms warrant medical consultation. Avoid eye contact; if it occurs, flush with water and seek immediate medical advice.
