Be cautious with DOLBAN:

This treatment should be initiated and supervised by the specialist who treats the diabetic patient. This preparation is for external use only. Do not apply to irritated skin or wounds. The product is highly irritating. Avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes. To do this, it is recommended to always wash your hands well with cold water and soap immediately after each application, and unless the doctor explicitly indicates otherwise, application of the cream near the eyes or on mucous membranes (e.g., the mouth) should be avoided. Contact with the eyes or other mucous membranes can cause a burning sensation. If this occurs, the area should be rinsed with plenty of cold water.

When the treated area is the hands, patients should not wash them for at least 30 minutes after application. During this time, accidental contact with sensitive areas should be monitored.

If the pain persists or worsens after the first 2 weeks of treatment, or disappears and returns after a few days, or excessive irritation appears, discontinue treatment and consult your doctor.

Do not apply heat or tight bandages to the area. Do not use for prolonged periods or on extensive areas.

Using other medicines:

Possible interactions of this specialty with other topical medicines are not known.

As it is a topical product, interactions with other systemic medicines are not expected.

4. Possible side effects

Like all medicines, DOLBANcan cause side effects, although not everybody gets them.

During the first days of treatment, a burning or itching sensation may appear in the application area in a proportion close to 50% of cases. This reaction, which is known, is a consequence of the pharmacological action of capsaicin, releasing substance P from peripheral nerve endings and accumulating in the synapse, and usually disappears or decreases over time as treatment continues at the recommended dose, without the need to interrupt it. Its duration and intensity are variable but may be prolonged if DOLBANis applied less than 3 or 4 times a day. Hot water, excessive sweating, or occlusion can intensify this sensation. Other possible side effects at the cutaneous level may be irritative erythema and dryness of the skin at the application site.

During treatment, sneezing, tearing, or coughing (less than 2%) may also appear as a consequence of inhaling dry cream residue. Therefore, it is important to apply the minimum amount of cream necessary and avoid leaving residue on the skin, as well as washing hands with cold water and soap after use.

If you consider that any of the side effects you are suffering from is serious, or if you notice any side effect not mentioned in this leaflet, inform your doctor or pharmacist.
