PRECAUTIONS

Cross sensitization to framycetin may occur in patients known to be allergic to streptomycin derved antibiotics (neomycin, paramomycin, kanamycine) in most cases absorption of the antibiotic is negligible.  However where large body areas are involved e.g. *0% or more body burn, the possibility of ototoxicity being produced by prolonged applications should be borne in mind.

DIRECTION FOR USE

If necessary, the wound may first be cleaned.  Following this single SAFRACIN TULLE®should be applied directly to the wound and covered with an appropriate dressing.  In the case of ulcers it is advisable to cut SAFRACIN TULLE® exactly to the size of the ulcer and not to overlap onto the surrounding epidermis.  When the lesion is very exudative it is advisable to change the dressing at least once a day, otherwise it may be left in situ for **3 days.
