Quick Tips
Apply Ozx Lotion only to the skin. Do not use it to the eyes. Immediately rinse it off with clean water if the medicine accidentally gets into the eyes. This medicine is for external use only. Do not swallow the lotion or use it in the eyes, on the mouth or lips, inside the nose, or inside the female genital area. Use the medicine for the entire time recommended by the doctor, even if your symptoms improved. Notify the doctor if there is no improvement in symptoms within a week after starting use of Ozx Lotion. Wash your hands frequently, particularly after touching infected skin. Do not touch or scratch the sores because this can spread the infection to other parts of the body and other people. Avoid the use of perfumes and fragrant soap. Wearing light clothing and keeping cool in bed may help. Avoid excessive sweating. Do not share your towel or clothes with anyone and wear clean clothes every day. Avoid contacting newborn babies, preparing food, playing contact sports, or going to the gym – until the risk of infection has passed.
