MENTOLO ALMUS relieves the symptoms of skin inflammation and pain caused by diseases
(exanthematous diseases), chafing, insect bites and burns and sunburns
caused by the sun (erythema solare).

days of using the medicine.

Warnings and precautions
Consult your doctor or pharmacist before using MENTOLO ALMUS.
Use this medicine only on the skin and therefore for the external areas of the body. Do not inhale this
medicine and do not apply it to the eyes, mucous membranes, open wounds and surgical gloves
as it may cause serious damage.
Avoid using this medicine for more than 3 days and at doses higher than
those recommended, because there is a risk of accumulation of substances called terpenic derivatives such as camphor,
cineole, niaouli, wild thyme, terpineol, terpin, citral, menthol and essential oils of pine needles,
eucalyptus and turpentine, which can cause you serious problems with the brain. During treatment with
MENTOLO ALMUS do not use other medicines or cosmetics containing terpenic derivatives.
This medicine should not be injected into a vein because it can cause serious damage (retinopathy, emboli and
pulmonary hypertension). Avoid applying the medicine to open wounds because of the talc content it may cause serious granulomatous reactions. Talc is also highly irritating to the
eyes and can cause serious damage (symblepharon) which in some cases may require surgical
correction.
Do not bring this medicine near flames, as it is flammable.
Children
Administer this medicine with caution in children up to 6 years of age.
MENTOLO ALMUS if used in excessive doses can cause problems with the nervous system, such as
convulsions, in newborns and children. Avoid using this medicine daily for
your child's hygiene because if inhaled it can cause serious problems such as respiratory problems and
death; symptoms may appear even after several hours. If you think your child has
inhaled this medicine, consult a doctor who will need to monitor their breathing.
If newborns with blood problems (glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiencies) are
exposed to menthol, they may experience worsening of blood problems (hemolysis and
kernicterus).
Other medicines and MENTOLO ALMUS
Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken or might take any
other medicine.
