If irritation develops, the use of ALOQUIN should be discontinued and appropriate therapy instituted. Some discoloration of the skin, hair and fabrics may occur, but can be removed with normal cleansing and laundry. Not intended for use on infants or under diapers or occlusive dressings. Iodoquinol may be absorbed through the skin and interfere with thyroid function tests. If such tests are contemplated, wait at least one month after discontinuance of therapy to perform these tests. The ferric chloride test for phenylketonuria (PKU) can yield a false positive result if Iodoquinol is present in the diaper or urine. Prolonged use may result in overgrowth of non-susceptible organisms requiring appropriate therapy. Keep out of reach of children. Carcinogenesis, Mutagenisis and Impairment of Fertility Long term animal studies have not been performed to evaluate the carcinogenic potential of the effect on fertility of Iodoquinol.
