When using Infester, consider the following precautions to ensure safe and effective therapy.

- Application area: limit use to affected skin only and avoid mucous membranes. - Duration of therapy: follow prescriber’s recommended treatment length; prolonged use may increase irritation. - Concomitant skin conditions: avoid use on compromised skin, open wounds, or eczematous lesions without medical advice. - Pediatric use: safety in children under two years has not been established; use only if prescribed. - Pregnancy and lactation: consult a healthcare professional before use during pregnancy or breastfeeding. - Store at below 25°C: keep the product in the original container, protect from moisture and direct sunlight.

Tioconazole may interact with other topical agents or systemic medications that affect fungal metabolism.

Major Interactions (Avoid): - Concurrent use of other topical antifungal creams: may increase risk of local irritation. - Systemic azole antifungals (e.g., fluconazole, itraconazole): can lead to additive systemic exposure if large skin areas are treated.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - Corticosteroid creams applied to the same area: may reduce antifungal efficacy. - Occlusive dressings over treated skin: can enhance absorption and increase irritation. - Products containing alcohol or harsh solvents: may exacerbate skin dryness.
