3. How to use Help4Skin SEPTI-SPRAY

This medicine should always be used exactly as described in this patient leaflet or as advised by a doctor or pharmacist. If in doubt, the patient should consult their doctor or pharmacist.
It is recommended to use Help4Skin SEPTI-SPRAY undiluted. The patient should use Help4Skin SEPTI-SPRAY immediately after injury or when the first signs of inflammation appear to achieve the best treatment result.
Unless otherwise advised by a doctor, for the treatment of wounds and injuries, Help4Skin SEPTI-SPRAY should be applied to the affected area once a day for a maximum of 14 days.
Help4Skin SEPTI-SPRAY should be applied by repeatedly pressing the mechanical spray head so that the entire treated area is thoroughly moistened.
Usually, in the case of minor injuries, it is not necessary to cover them with a dressing or plaster. However, to prevent further infection of the wound, it is recommended to secure the wound with a bandage.
The patient should remember that the full effect of the medicine will only be visible after 1-2 minutes of application, so they should wait this time before performing any other procedures.
The maximum effect of Help4Skin SEPTI-SPRAY occurs within 2 hours of its application.
If the wound does not heal properly, signs of inflammation (redness, burning, swelling at the application site) or other complications occur during healing, the patient should consult their doctor or pharmacist. The medicine should not be used for more than 14 days without consulting a doctor.
So far, there is only limited experience with the long-term use of the medicine for up to 14 days, so Help4Skin SEPTI-SPRAY should not be used for longer than this period.

There is no data on overdose. When using the medicine according to the instructions, overdose of Help4Skin SEPTI-SPRAY is unlikely.
If the patient has any further doubts about using this medicine, they should consult their doctor, pharmacist, or nurse.
