1.WHAT SIOPEL CREAM IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Siopel cream contains two active ingredients, cetrimide and
dimeticone. Cetrimide is an antiseptic
which destroys germs. Dimeticone protects the skin from water.
Siopel cream is used as a water repellent barrier cream with
antiseptic properties. It is useful when the
skin needs to be protected from water or external irritants.
2.WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW BEFORE YOU USE SIOPEL CREAM
Do not use Siopel cream:
• If you are allergic to cetrimide or dim
eticone or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in
section 6). [Please note: Siopel cream contains Arachis oil (peanut
oil) and should not be applied
by patients known to be allergic to peanut. As there is a possible
relationship between allergy to
peanut and allergy to Soya, patients with Soya allergy should also
avoid Siopel cream.]
• In body cavities or as an enema
• On skin that is acutely inflamed (i.e. red and angry) or weeping
• Before the skin has been cleansed of any irritants
Warnings and precautions
Talk to your doctor, pharmacist or nurse before using Siopel cream.
• Take care to avoid applica
tion to the ears and eyes, and any deep cuts involving the head or
spine.
