Description
Overview of the medicine
A topical formulation designed to provide immediate relief from minor burns, soothe skin irritation, and promote natural healing.
Uses & Indications
Dosage
Adults
Apply a thin layer to the affected area 2-3 times daily or as needed. Do not rub vigorously.
Elderly
Adult dosage is generally applicable. No specific dose adjustment needed.
Renal_impairment
No dosage adjustment required for renal impairment as systemic absorption is minimal.
How to Take
For external use only. Wash hands thoroughly before and after application. Apply a thin layer gently. Do not apply to open wounds, broken skin, or mucous membranes.
Mechanism of Action
Contains cooling agents (e.g., menthol), local anesthetics (e.g., lidocaine derivative), and skin protectants (e.g., aloe vera, allantoin) to reduce pain, inflammation, and create a protective barrier.
Pharmacokinetics
Onset
Rapid, typically within minutes of application.
Excretion
Not applicable for systemic excretion; removed through normal skin turnover or washing.
Half life
Not applicable for systemic half-life; local effects last several hours.
Absorption
Minimal systemic absorption through intact skin. Active ingredients primarily exert local effects.
Metabolism
Local metabolism within the skin. Minimal systemic metabolic pathways for the small absorbed fraction.
Side Effects
Contraindications
- Known hypersensitivity to any ingredient
- Severe burns (third degree or extensive second degree)
- Deep puncture wounds
- Extensive skin damage or infection at the site of application
Drug Interactions
Topical corticosteroids
May alter skin absorption of Burnless if applied concurrently on the same area.
Other topical preparations
Avoid concurrent application of other topical products on the same area without medical advice to prevent altered absorption or irritation.
Storage
Store below 30°C in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Do not freeze. Keep out of reach of children.
Overdose
Excessive topical application may lead to localized skin irritation, redness, or allergic reaction. Systemic overdose is highly unlikely due to minimal absorption. If ingested, seek immediate medical attention.
Pregnancy & Lactation
Consult a doctor before use if pregnant or breastfeeding. Generally considered safe for topical use on small areas, but extensive use should be avoided.
