Eurax should not be allowed to come into contact with the conjunctiva. Where such contact occurs by accident, the eyes should be bathed with water. Treatment with the cream is not indicated in acutely inflamed, weeping skin conditions or skin wounds owing to the danger of systemic absorption.
Use in pregnancy & lactation: Pregnancy Category C: Since the risk-benefit ratio in pregnancy, inadequately documented use of Eurax during pregnancy, particularly during the 1st trimester, is not advised.
It is not known whether the active substance of Eurax passes into the breast milk. Nursing mothers should in all events avoid applying Eurax in the area of the nipples.
