Before applying the patch test, your doctor will ensure that the test area is free of any ongoing skin condition that may interfere with the results.
Avoid strenuous physical exercise and excessive sweating while wearing the test patch.
Avoid showers and baths, as moisture can cause the test panel to come off.
Refrain from taking medications such as steroids, which inhibit the immune system, as they may cause false-negative reactions.
If you have previously had anaphylactoid reactions. The use of p-toluendiamina SmartPractice should be carefully considered.
If you are allergic to p-toluendiamina, you may also be allergic to other chemicals with a similar structure, such as those found in some hair dyes. Your doctor may decide to perform additional tests to identify these chemicals.

Other medications and p-toluendiamina SmartPractice

Tell your doctor or nurse if you are using, have recently used, or may need to use any other medication, including those purchased without a prescription, before applying p-toluendiamina SmartPractice. Remember that your doctor may not know what medications you are taking.

Steroids can cause false-negative results in the test. Your doctor will decide whether to interrupt steroid treatment before the test. If you are unsure whether any of your medications contain steroids, talk to your doctor.
If you are undergoing treatment with cytotoxic medications or immunosuppressive therapy, the patch test should be postponed.

Pregnancy and breastfeeding

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

The patch test for allergies should not be performed during pregnancy or breastfeeding, unless it is considered absolutely necessary. Your doctor will decide whether you should perform the patch test or not.

Driving and using machines

It is unlikely that this medication will affect your ability to drive or use machines. Talk to your doctor if you have any concerns about this.

3. How to use p-toluendiamina SmartPractice

Method of administration

During the patch test, the healthcare professional will perform the following steps:

For the allergy test, a 5 mm strip of ointment is applied directly to the designated area of the test panel.
Then, the test panel is applied to healthy, dry skin (usually on the back or upper arm).

Duration of treatment

The patch test will be removed 48 hours after application.
Your doctor will read the test result 30 minutes after removal and again after 1 and 2 days, when allergic reactions have fully developed and possible irritant reactions have disappeared.
The evaluation of skin reactions will be performed by the doctor following an established protocol. The instructions for this evaluation are found in the information for healthcare professionals (see section "Interpretation").
If you experience severe discomfort in the test area, contact your doctor. Your doctor may decide to remove the test.

Use in children and adolescents

Clinical trial data in children are limited.

Children under 12 years old should only undergo the test with p-toluendiamina SmartPractice when there is a strong suspicion of contact allergy to p-toluendiamina. Your doctor will decide whether to perform the test.

The patch test can be removed after 24 hours to reduce irritant reactions.

If you use more p-toluendiamina SmartPractice than you should

If the test is used correctly, overdose is not possible. If used incorrectly, it can cause a stronger allergic reaction, including blisters on the skin. In these cases, the doctor will take the necessary measures.

If you have any further questions about the use of this medication, ask your doctor or nurse.
