3. How to use Curadona scrub
Follow the administration instructions for the medication contained in this package leaflet or as indicated by your doctor or pharmacist. If in doubt, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
Recommended dose: Apply a small amount directly to the affected area, 2 to 3 times a day.
Method of administration
Topical use.
After application, rub for 2-5 minutes until a lather forms. Rinse with plenty of water or with a sterile gauze soaked in water.
This medication may stain skin and clothing. If this occurs, apply water to remove the stain from the skin and to remove stains from clothing, wash the garment with water and soap.
If symptoms worsen or persist after 7 days, you should consult a doctor.
If you use more Curadona scrub than you should
If you have used more Curadona scrub than you should, consult your doctor or pharmacist. In case of overdose or accidental ingestion, consult the Toxicology Information Service immediately, telephone 91 562 04 20, indicating the medication and the amount ingested.
In the event that an excessive amount of product is applied and skin irritation occurs, wash the affected area with plenty of water, suspend treatment, and if irritation continues, consult a doctor.
In cases of ingestion of large amounts of povidone iodine, the following may occur: abdominal pain, diarrhea, fever, nausea, vomiting, metabolic acidosis, and hypernatremia (excess sodium in the blood), as well as alterations in kidney, liver, and thyroid function. Excess iodine can also cause goiter, hypothyroidism, or hyperthyroidism.
In these cases, if the patient is conscious, they should ingest milk every 15 minutes to alleviate stomach irritation. Additionally, to eliminate the povidone iodine that may remain in the stomach, a starch solution should be administered, prepared by adding 15 mg of cornstarch or 15 mg of flour to 500 ml of water. If the patient suffers esophageal damage, stomach lavage or vomiting should not be induced.
Other supportive measures may be used to maintain vital functions, such as oxygen administration to maintain respiration and the administration of antihistamines, epinephrine, or corticosteroids to treat anaphylaxis.
If you have any other questions about the use of this medication, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
4. Possible Side Effects
Like all medications, this medication can cause side effects, although not everyone will experience them.
During the use of povidone iodine, the following side effects have been observed, whose frequency cannot be established with precision: occasionally skin disorders, such as local irritation, itching, or burning. In these cases, treatment should be suspended and the affected area washed with water.
However, side effects can be more severe if the product is used for a long time or applied to large wounds or extensive burns, potentially causing systemic side effects, such as primarily metabolic acidosis, hypernatremia (excess sodium in the blood), and disorders of kidney, liver, and thyroid function (especially in children).
