DOSAGE

Quantity and method of taking Azolmen 1% 30g cream - How to take Azolmen 1% 30g cream?

Cream, gel and skin solution Unless otherwise prescribed by your doctor Azolmen should be applied in small quantities to the infected areas with a light massage once a day, preferably in the evening before going to bed. Azolmen cream and gel are specifically indicated for the treatment of exposed skin areas. Azolmen gel, thanks to the refreshing power of its components, is particularly useful in cases where the infection in progress is associated with an inflammatory component with a burning sensation and/or itching of the skin. Given the high activity of Azolmen, the application of a small quantity (e.g. ½ cm of cream or gel) is usually sufficient to cover a surface the size of the palm of your hand. Azolmen skin solution is especially useful for the treatment of hairy skin areas as well as fungal infections in skin folds, with the exception of mucous membranes. Azolmen cream, gel and skin solution is odorless, does not stain and can be easily removed with water. In order to achieve complete healing, controlled and sufficiently prolonged use of Azolmen is essential. It is advisable not to interrupt therapy immediately after the disappearance of acute inflammatory manifestations and subjective symptoms, but to adhere to the following average treatment times, depending on the type of infection, the extent and location of the infection itself:

tinea pedis	3 weeks
tinea corporis, tinea manuum, tinea cruris	2–(3) weeks
pityriasis versicolor	2 weeks
superficial skin candidiasis	2–(4) weeks

The treatment times indicated in brackets refer to forms that, in the doctor's opinion, are particularly extensive or resistant. Skin powder The affected areas of skin can be sprinkled with the powder, once or more times a day, depending on the level of humidity and the location of the mycosis. Azolmen skin powder can, in the doctor's opinion, be applied as an adjuvant to the cream, gel or skin solution (for example: powder in the morning, cream, gel or skin solution in the evening). Azolmen skin powder can be sprinkled, in the case of tinea pedis, in shoes and socks also in order to eliminate humidity conditions and avoid reinfections.
