Warnings and precautions
Do not use for ophthalmic treatments. There are currently no studies on the use of the drug in pediatrics.

The product should not be used for ophthalmic treatments. The use, especially if prolonged, of topical products can give rise to sensitization phenomena.

Pregnancy and breastfeeding
Ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before taking any medicine.
After topical application of large quantities of the drug, no trace has ever been found in the plasma; despite this, perfect safety in pregnant women has not yet been demonstrated; therefore, the risk/benefit ratio should be evaluated before applying the product during pregnancy or to breastfeeding mothers.
There are currently no studies on pediatric use.

Possible side effects
Like all medicines, SERTACREAM can cause side effects, although not everyone experiences them.
To date, no toxic or photosensitizing effects have been reported.
During the first days of treatment, no cases of local and transient erythematous reaction were observed that required discontinuation of treatment.
As with all imidazoles, particularly after prolonged use, episodes of local irritation (such as burning and itching) may occur.
Following the instructions contained in the package leaflet reduces the risk of side effects. If any of the side effects worsen, or if you notice any side effects not listed in this package leaflet, inform your doctor or pharmacist.
