Skin antiseptic.
You should consult a doctor if it worsens or does not improve after 2 days.
2. What you need to know before starting to use Alcomon Reinforced 70º

Warnings and precautions
Consult your doctor, pharmacist, or nurse before starting to use Alcomon Reinforced 70º.
Protect from heat. Highly flammable. Keep the container tightly closed.
Do not smoke during application.
Do not come into contact with mucous membranes.
Prolonged use may cause skin irritation and dryness.
May cause contact dermatitis.
Do not apply to wounds, as it irritates damaged tissue and may form a scab that protects resistant bacteria.
Avoid contact with the eyes. If accidental contact with the eyes occurs, rinse abundantly with water and consult an ophthalmologist if necessary.
The solution is flammable.
The risk of fire is high when using an ignition source (electrosurgical units, lasers, fiber optic light sources, high-speed drills/burs...) in combination with a combustion source (such as cloths, towels...) and an oxidizing agent (oxygen, air, nitrous oxide...).
To reduce the risk of fire:
- Do not use electrocautery procedures or other ignition sources until the skin is completely dry.
- Remove any soaked material, gauzes, or gowns before starting the procedure.
- Do not use excessive amounts and avoid accumulating the solution in skin folds, under the patient, or soaking sheets or other materials in direct contact with the patient.
- When applying an occlusive dressing to areas previously exposed to Alcomon Reinforced 70º, take special care to ensure there is no excess product before applying the dressing.
- Reduce the oxygen supply or any other oxidizing agent to the minimum necessary. Those procedures performed on the head, neck, and upper chest (above T5) and the use of an ignition source near an oxidizing agent put the patient at risk of suffering a surgical fire.

If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, think you may be pregnant, or plan to become pregnant, consult your doctor or pharmacist before using this medicine.
