However, in cases of severe liver disease, caution is still recommended because there may still be some systemic absorption. It's best to consult your healthcare provider before using it, as they can assess your specific liver condition and determine if the medication is safe for you. Regular monitoring might still be advised to ensure it doesn't cause any adverse effects.

Consult your doctor
As Tic Tac 0.1% Ointment is a topical medication, it has minimal systemic absorption.
