How to use Nystaform HC
The following are recommneded steps to using Nystaform. Please read the Patient Information Leaflet in full before use, and if you are unsure after this then you must consult a doctor or pharmacist.
- Clean the affected area: Before applying the cream, gently clean and dry the affected skin. This helps to remove any dirt or moisture that could worsen the infection.
- Apply a thin layer: Take a small amount of Nystaform cream and apply it thinly to the affected area. You can use your fingers or a cotton swab for application. Make sure to cover the entire affected area and a small amount of surrounding skin.
- Rub it in gently: Use gentle, circular motions to rub the cream into the skin until it's absorbed. Avoid rubbing too hard, especially if the affected area is irritated or sensitive.
- Frequency of application: Follow your doctor's or pharmacist's instructions regarding how often to apply the cream. Typically, it's applied 2 to 3 times daily, but this may vary depending on the severity of the condition.
- Continue use: It's important to continue using the cream for the full course of treatment, even if symptoms improve before the infection is completely cleared. This helps prevent the infection from coming back.
- Wash hands after application: After applying the cream, wash your hands thoroughly to prevent spreading the infection to other parts of your body or to others.
- Consult a healthcare professional: If you have any questions or concerns about using Nystaform cream, or if your symptoms worsen or don't improve after using it, consult your doctor or pharmacist for further guidance.
