1. WHAT MENADERM SIMPLEX IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR

MENADERM SIMPLEX contains the active ingredient beclometasone dipropionate, belonging to the class
of corticosteroids (anti-inflammatory drugs).
MENADERM SIMPLEX is used in the treatment of skin diseases in which therapy with
local corticosteroid drugs is indicated, such as:

• allergic dermatitis (skin inflammation of an allergic nature), acute and chronic (short or long duration), exogenous and endogenous (caused by external or internal agents);
• contact dermatitis of various types, eczema (non-infectious itchy inflammatory skin reaction) in children and eczematous dermatitis.

MENADERM SIMPLEX is also used in cases of:

• dyshidrosis (inflammatory skin disease characterized by the appearance of itchy blisters on hands and feet);
• ano-genital pruritus;
• burns and solar erythema (redness of the skin caused by excessive exposure to sunlight);
• reactions to chemical agents or plant substances;
• psoriasis (chronic inflammatory skin disease, non-infectious and non-contagious, of autoimmune nature, characterized by erythema and scaling), as an adjunct.

2. WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW BEFORE USING MENADERM SIMPLEX

Do not use MENADERM SIMPLEX

• If you are allergic (hypersensitive) to the active ingredient or to any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).
• If you have a skin lesion of a tuberculous (derived from tuberculosis), viral (caused by a virus) and luetic (derived from syphilis, a sexually transmitted infectious disease) nature.
• For occlusive dressing (covering the affected area with bandages after applying the medicine) in case of atopic dermatitis (chronic inflammatory skin disease, with intense itching and dryness) (see “Warnings and precautions”).

Warnings and precautions
Consult your doctor or pharmacist before using MENADERM SIMPLEX.
Contact your doctor if you experience blurred vision or other visual disturbances.
The use, especially if prolonged, of topical products can give rise to sensitization phenomena
(increased reactivity to certain substances); in this case it is necessary to interrupt the treatment and your
doctor will eventually establish an appropriate therapy for the sensitization phenomenon that has
manifested itself.
In case of occlusive therapy, especially in cases of extensive lesions, it is advisable to treat one part at
a time, as occlusive bandaging can promote the absorption of components through the skin with
consequent possible appearance of systemic effects (relating to the whole organism). By treating one area at
a time it is possible to avoid any alterations (increases) in your body temperature. If such alterations were to
occur, discontinue treatment immediately.
The material used for occlusive bandaging can cause individual sensitization phenomena that
require replacement of the material used.
In newborns, the diaper can act as an occlusive bandage, thus increasing the risk of adverse
effects.
In case of use of the medicine in the presence of skin infections, institute appropriate therapy and, in case
of failure of this, discontinue treatment.
Occlusive therapy is contraindicated in atopic dermatitis (see “Do not use MENADERM SIMPLEX”).
The product is not intended for ophthalmic use (for the eyes).

your body or with occlusive bandaging.

4. POSSIBLE SIDE EFFECTS

Like all medicines, this medicine can cause side effects, although not everybody gets them.

Stop treatment and contact your doctor who will prescribe suitable therapy if you notice the
appearance of any of the following side effects:

• burning sensation, irritation, dryness of the skin, folliculitis (inflammation and/or infection of the hair follicle), acneiform eruptions (skin rashes similar to acne), hypertrichosis (increased hairiness), hypopigmentation (alteration of skin color) and, especially when using occlusive bandages, skin atrophy (thinning of the skin).
• Blurred vision (frequency not known).

These effects are classic disorders associated with topical corticosteroid therapy and usually manifest
in a mild and reversible form. They may be favored by occlusive therapy (bandages) or by the use of
high doses of medicine for prolonged periods on large areas of skin (see "Warnings and
precautions").
Systemic side effects caused by topical corticosteroids are very rare.
