Externally, to the affected areas, gently rubbing, apply a thin layer 2-3 times a day. If necessary, apply an occlusive bandage, which is changed every 24 hours (due to the delay evaporation of sweat and skin breathing creates a moist chamber, contributing to the loosening of the stratum corneum and increased, deeper penetration of the drug is approximately 100 times greater than for a simple application). The course of treatment - up to 3 weeks. If necessary, long-term treatment applied less frequently through the day. In the treatment of chronic diseases the treatment must continue for some time after the disappearance of symptoms to avoid relapse.

If signs of allergic reactions or local irritation, treatment should be discontinued.
