For the first week, apply generously to the affected area(s) of your skin once every other day. Then, gradually apply more often as recommended by your provider, until you've reached a frequency that works to control your symptoms.

For example,

  • Week 1: Apply once every other day.
  • Week 2: Apply once daily.
  • Week 3: Apply twice daily, and so forth.

Most individuals will see improvement of their symptoms by using the medication only twice a day.
