Ucemic Cream should be used in the dose and duration as prescribed by your doctor. This medicine should be used regularly to get the most benefit from it.

Do not use the medicine for longer than your doctor has told you to and let him or her know if your condition does not improve after 2 to 6 weeks of treatment. The effects of the medicine can be increased by keeping the affected area clean and dry and washing hands before and after treating the infection.
