Apply thinly to affected areas of skin only. Clean the affected area and dry well before applying Pacroma Cream. Avoid contact with water (shower, swimming) right after application. Clean the area to be treated with water and a non-medicated soap and let it dry completely before applying Pacroma Cream. Don't cover the area being treated with airtight dressings such as bandages unless directed by a doctor as this may increase the risk of side effects. Inform your doctor if there's no improvement even after two weeks of treatment or if the skin gets worse. Stop using Pacroma Cream and consult your doctor if your eczema becomes infected. Continuous long-term use of the ointment should be avoided. Use as prescribed by your doctor.
