Product Information

Medicine for itching and insect bites

Shin Una Kowa Cool is an ice-cool anti-itch medicine that suppresses itching from insect bites such as mosquito bites at its source and works quickly.

●The active ingredient lidocaine blocks the transmission of itching, and diphenhydramine hydrochloride suppresses the action of histamine, which causes itching.
●Contains l-menthol, which gives a cooling sensation to the hot, affected area and relieves itching.
●The tip is a sponge, so it can be applied directly to the affected area without getting your hands dirty.

Deviating from the specified dosage and administration of a medicine can lead to serious harm to health. Always read the product instructions carefully before use and follow the dosage and administration. Even when a medicine is used correctly according to the dosage and administration, side effects may occur. If you notice anything unusual, stop use immediately and consult a doctor or pharmacist.
