Drug introduction

Triclosan is a common antiseptic and preservative widely used in personal care products, detergents and cosmetics. It has potent antibacterial properties and is effective in inhibiting the growth of bacteria and fungi. Triclosan is commonly found in toothpaste, hand sanitizer, shower gel and other products, and can effectively clean and protect the skin. However, in recent years, studies have pointed out that long-term and large-scale use of triclosan may have negative effects on human health, including interfering with the hormonal system and suppressing immune function. Therefore, it is recommended that when using products containing triclosan, you should use it in moderation and avoid long-term exposure to large amounts. If allergic or uncomfortable reactions occur, discontinue use immediately and seek professional advice.

How to use TRICLOSAN: Please use TRICLOSAN according to the instructions of your doctor or pharmacist. It is usually recommended to apply TRICLOSAN to the affected area and massage gently until completely absorbed. Before using TRICLOSAN, the affected area should be clean and dry. No specific dietary restrictions are required when using TRICLOSAN, but contact with eyes and mucous membranes should be avoided.

Dosage Guidelines: The dosage of TRICLOSAN will be based on the patient's age and condition. It is generally recommended that adults use about one to two drops of TRICLOSAN each time, depending on the size of the affected area. For children, the recommended dose is usually lower and should be used according to the recommendations of your pediatrician. If you experience any discomfort or allergic reaction after using TRICLOSAN, you should stop using it and seek medical advice immediately.
