Always follow your doctor’s instructions. The typical dosage involves a thin layer of ointment applied directly to the affected area.
Here’s a step-by-step guide:
Wash your hands thoroughly before and after application. Clean the application area with mild soap and water, then pat dry gently. Squeeze a small amount of ointment onto your fingertip. Apply a thin layer to the affected area, ensuring even coverage. Avoid rubbing the ointment vigorously. Gently spread it across the surface. Allow the ointment to absorb fully before dressing the area, if necessary. Wash your hands again after application.
Frequency: Apply the ointment as directed by your healthcare provider. This may vary depending on your condition and response to treatment. Do not exceed the recommended dosage.
Important Considerations:
- Avoid contact with your eyes. If accidental contact occurs, rinse immediately with plenty of water. Inform your doctor about any other medications you are taking. Report any side effects to your doctor immediately. Store the ointment in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Keep the ointment out of reach of children.
