Apply a thin layer of the cream to the affected area 2 to 3 times daily. Clean and dry the area before applying. Rub it in gently. Continue using for the full recommended period even if the skin looks better — usually 2 to 4 weeks for fungal infections.
If you forget to apply the cream, use it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next application, just skip the missed one and continue as normal. Do not double up by applying extra cream.
Buy only from reputable pharmacies — products like Peuraderm Cream should come in proper sealed packaging. Do not stop using the cream too early because the infection may come back even if the skin looks clear. Do not share your cream with others as skin conditions differ and need proper diagnosis.
Avoid using other medicated creams or ointments on the same area at the same time unless your doctor says so. Do not mix with bleaching creams or steroid creams as this can cause serious skin damage.
