Warnings In rare cases, sensitivity or adverse reactions may be experienced. In such cases immediately remove the disks while preventing swallowing and refer the patient to a physician. Patients less than 12 years old and patients with special needs should remain under professional supervision until the Phocal disks have biodegraded or have been removed. The disks are not intended for systemic ingestion and should be kept out of children's reach. If more than 20 disks are accidently swallowed, seek immediate medical assistance. Phocal should not be applied in sites with: gingival inflammation, immediately prior to or after oral soft tissue surgery and in cases of known allergies to any of the Phocal ingredients. Phocal is to be sold as unbroken boxes with all disks sealed within the blister packs and is to be used for application in the dental office by professionals only. When Phocal treatment is utilized, routine systemic and topical administrations of fluoride should be suspended during the day of application. Since the propolis wax and gelatin used in Phocal disks are natural products, they may occasionally interact to produce brownish spots or discoloration. This does not indicate that there is any hazard or danger in using the product. Recommended storage temperatures are 40°F-75°F (5°C-25°C).
