Special precautions:

The recommended posology must be rigorously followed for the different situations. When used for the lubrication of endotracheal tubes precaution is recommended so that the gel does not get inside the tube since the gel can turn solid and cause obstruction.

Excipient(s) with known effect: Methylparaben; Propylparaben. These may cause allergic reactions (possibly delayed).

Carefully read all information in the medicine package and patient information leaflet, and in case of doubt or if you do not feel better and your symptoms persist you must talk to your doctor or pharmacist. Please read the package information leaflet here.
