As you can read below, you must not apply it on your mouth.
What should I avoid while using Tolak?
Do not use Tolak on your eyelids or in your eyes, nose, or mouth. Rinse with water or saline if this medicine gets in your eyes.
Do not let Tolak build up in the skin folds around your mouth, nose, or eyes. Use caution when applying the medicine around these areas.
Avoid using other medications on the areas you treat with fluorouracil unless your doctor tells you to.
Avoid exposure to sunlight or tanning beds. Tolak can make you sunburn more easily. Wear protective clothing and use sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) when you are outdoors.
