Interaction with other medicinal products and other forms of interaction.

Since salicylic acid is a component of the drug, Tyumirov's Paste should not be combined with oral administration of drugs containing acetylsalicylic acid and other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents. Do not use concurrently with benzoyl peroxide and topical retinoids.

Salicylic acid may enhance skin permeability for other topical medicinal products, thereby increasing their systemic absorption. In addition, salicylic acid may potentiate the adverse effects of methotrexate and the hypoglycemic effect of oral antidiabetic agents — sulfonylurea derivatives.

If simultaneous use with any other medicinal products is necessary, consult a physician.
