Do not use in eyes.

Keep out of reach of children.

Store at room temperature away from electrical appliances, magnets, and direct sunlight.

Some sources state that long-term use of any type of medicinal silver preparation may cause a condition known as argyria, whereby silver deposits occur in the skin, eyes, and internal organs, leaving the skin an ashen-gray colour.
