The following safety and warning information outlines potential risks and precautions when using this medication. Please read carefully and consult your healthcare provider with any questions or concerns.

• Salicylate Poisoning: Rarely, menthol/methyl salicylate can lead to salicylate poisoning if too much of the medication is absorbed into your body, often through excessive use or accidental ingestion. It is crucial to keep products containing more than 5% methyl salicylate away from young children, as exposure can be toxic. Immediate medical attention is necessary if you experience symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, rapid breathing, or dizziness.

• Serious Skin Burns: There is a rare risk of serious skin burns, which may occur within 24 hours of first use. These burns can be severe and may require hospitalization. If you notice pain, blistering, or swelling at the application site, discontinue use immediately and seek medical attention. Risks include covering the application area or applying heat to it.

• Flammable Products: Certain formulations, such as sprays containing menthol/methyl salicylate, are flammable and can ignite if used near heat, open flames, or during smoking. Always check the product packaging for flammability warnings. Avoid storing these products at temperatures above 104ºF, and ensure they are never subjected to temperatures exceeding 120ºF.

Please be mindful of these warnings to ensure safe use of the medication.

When using this medication, some people may experience mild side effects such as redness, warmth, stinging, or a burning sensation at the application site. These effects are usually temporary, but if they persist or worsen, it is advisable to consult your healthcare provider. Skin irritation is another common side effect and should be discussed with a healthcare professional if it becomes bothersome.

More serious side effects, although rare, necessitate immediate medical attention. These include severe skin burns characterized by blistering, swelling, or unusual pain at the application site. Additionally, signs of salicylate poisoning such as nausea, vomiting, fast breathing, dizziness, confusion, or headache are serious and require urgent care.

In extremely rare cases, a serious allergic reaction might occur, marked by symptoms such as a rash, itching, swelling (especially of the face, tongue, or throat), severe dizziness, or difficulty breathing. If you notice any of these symptoms, seek medical help immediately. Always be mindful of any unexpected reactions and consult your healthcare provider for advice.
