How To Use Nixoderm Ointment

Ointment so that the entire surface is covered. This should be done
twice daily, in the morning and evening. The treatment should be
followed for seven days then discontinued for three days and resumed for
further seven days. Continue this pattern of treatment until the
condition has cleared up.
For Foot Itch
Clean
and dry your feet thoroughly. Apply liberal amount of Nixoderm ointment
onto the affected area, paying special attention to areas between the
toes. This should be done twice daily, in the morning and evening. The
treatment should be followed for seven days then discontinued for three
days and resumed for further seven days. Continue this pattern of
treatment until the condition has cleared up. This is one of the most
stubborn skin conditions, hence symptoms may disappear only to
re-emerge.
