To get maximum value from the neutralizing liquid and completely stop an itch before a bump forms, utilize this step-by-step application flow.

1.Prepare the Pen:Shake Well.
Ensure the plastic cap is screwed tightly onto the pen, then shake the applicator vigorously for a few seconds to thoroughly blend the milky liquid emulsion.

2.Apply to the Bite:Vigorous Circular Motion.
Uncap the pen and place the smooth applicator tip directly over the center of the insect bite or sting. Rub the liquid onto the skin using a firm, vigorous circular motion to help the formula penetrate the puncture path.

3.Leave Uncovered:Air Dry.
Allow the milky liquid to air-dry naturally on your skin. Do not cover the treated area with tight bandages, plastic wraps, or waterproof plasters while it is wet, as trapping the ammonia can cause localized skin irritation.

4.Repeat and Seal:Reapply if Needed.
If the frustrating itch tries to return after a few hours, you can safely repeat the process. Once finished, screw the cap back on tightly to prevent the volatile liquid from evaporating

Contraindications

• Children Under 2 Years: Do NOT use on infants or toddlers under 2 years of age. Their skin barrier is entirely too delicate and permeable for topically applied ammonia. 
• Broken or Infected Skin: Do not apply to open wounds, raw scratches, bleeding skin, or patches actively oozing pus.
• Hypersensitivity: Avoid if you have a known history of severe skin allergies to ammonia, sodium bicarbonate, or any listed ingredient in the liquid base.

Side Effects

• Common: A brief, intense stinging or smarting sensation right upon application, especially if you have already scratched the bite raw. You will also notice a very strong, distinct pungent smell of household ammonia.
• Rare: Localized skin redness, minor chemical irritation, or temporary flaking if applied too heavily to sensitive skin zones.
• Action: The brief stinging sensation is completely normal as the formula neutralizes the area. However, if severe burning, blistering, or an angry red rash develops, wash the area thoroughly with plain cool water and discontinue use.

Precautions and Warnings

• External Use Only: Designed strictly for outer skin application. Keep the pen far away from your eyes, nose, mouth, and genital regions. The ammonia vapors alone can cause severe tearing and irritation if brought close to the eyes. 
• The Scratching Trap: Try your absolute best to apply After Bite before you scratch the bump open. If you scratch the skin raw first, applying the ammonia formula will cause a very sharp, painful sting.
• Watch for Anaphylaxis: Remember that After Bite is a local, first-aid treatment for basic skin itching. It will not stop a systemic, life-threatening allergic reaction (anaphylaxis). If a bee or wasp sting causes sudden difficulty breathing, swelling of the throat or tongue, severe dizziness, or a widespread body rash, seek emergency medical care immediately.
