If necessary, you can use the product more often if the patient feels dry between applications.

Side effects

Despite the relative safety of the agent, it can provoke negative reactions, even if all recommendations are followed.

Usually, the disorders affect only the skin, but sometimes systemic reactions appear:

• Itching of the skin. The presence of several herbal ingredients increases the likelihood of developing allergies. It manifests itself in the form of classic symptoms. A rash appears on the body, gradually spreads to large areas, increases in size, and can provoke severe itching.

Often, the symptoms of allergies are aggravated, which only worsens the condition and provokes other complications. Patients are not advised to continue using the product in the event of negative reactions from the skin or internal organs.

Many patients do not require the appointment of special means to eliminate manifestations, since the symptoms disappear on their own after refusal of therapy. But in case of aggravation of the manifestations, it is better to contact a specialist who will prescribe drugs to prevent the progression of the condition.

Overdose

The drug does not lead to the development of an overdose, even with prolonged use in high doses. This is due to the lack of a cumulative effect and the rare penetration of the components of the composition into the blood.

Despite this, you should not use the drug uncontrollably, especially without consulting a specialist. The likelihood of worsening negative symptoms increases with the wrong use of the emulsion.
