Apply a sufficient amount to cover the affected area and 1 inch of the immediate surrounding skin. Wait for at least 30 minutes before eating and drinking anything. Avoid getting it in the eyes, nose, or mouth. If accidental exposure occurs, rinse immediately with plenty of water. Inform your doctor if the infection has not cleared up after four weeks of treatment. Inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning pregnancy or breastfeeding.
