4.4     Special warnings and precautions for use

 

Mirvaso should not be applied on irritated skin or open wounds. In case of severe irritation or contact allergy, the treatment with the medicinal product should be discontinued.

 

Treatment with the medicinal product should start on a small area of the face to test the tolerance.

 

Erythema and Flushing

The effect of Mirvaso begins to diminish hours after application. In some patients, erythema and flushing were reported to return with greater severity than was present at baseline. Most of the cases were observed within the first 2 weeks of starting the treatment (see section 4.8).

 

The onset of flushing relative to application of Mirvaso varied, ranging from approximately 30 minutes to several hours (see section 4.8).

 

In the majority of these cases, erythema and flushing resolved after discontinuation of Mirvaso.

 

In case worsening of erythema occurs, Mirvaso should be discontinued. Symptomatic measures, such as cooling, NSAID and antihistamines, may help in alleviating symptoms.

 

Recurrences of aggravated erythema and flushing have been reported after re-administration of Mirvaso. Prior to resuming treatment after temporary discontinuation due to aggravated erythema or flushing, it is advisable to first ensure restoration of the skin barrier function, if necessary, and perform a test application on a small area of the face before full facial application is resumed.

 

It is important to inform the patient not to exceed the recommended dose and frequency of application: once daily use in a thin layer.

 

Mirvaso should not be applied close to the eyes.
