Grafco Applicator 15 CM

INDICATIONS: For cauterization of skin or mucous membrane and for removing warts and granulated tissue.

Silver salts stain tissue black due to deposition of reduced silver. The stain gradually disappears within a period of two weeks. Prolonged ingestion or absorption of silver compounds leads to deposition of silver in connective tissues, producing a slate-blue discoloration of the skin known as argyria. This discoloration may also appear on mucous membranes such as the margins of gums. The sclera of the eye is also stained.

WARNING: KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN. The active ingredients are poisonous and may be fatal when ingested in sufficient doses. The symptoms include toxic gastroenteritis, which may lead to coma, convulsion, paralysis and profound alteration of respiration. If poisoning occurs, immediately consult a physician. WARNING: DO NOT USE ON THE EYES. In case of eye contact, hold eyes open and immediately flush thoroughly with water for at least 15 minutes and consult a physician.

CAUTION: SILVER NITRATE IS A CAUSTIC SUBSTANCE. Chemical burns may result from inappropriate use of product.

• Wear chemical resistant gloves while using this product. Wear other appropriate personal protective equipment as needed.
• Take care to confine the silver nitrate to the area being treated by using an appropriate physical or chemical barrier to prevent staining or burning of untreated tissue.
• Skin contact time with applicators should be minimal when used on thin delicate skin or neonates.
• Avoid prolonged contact with skin or other surfaces since staining may occur. CAUTION: FEDERAL LAW PROHIBITS DISPENSING WITHOUT PRESCRIPTION.
