DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION - The preferable method of use is to apply KERALYT GEL thoroughly to the affected area and occlude the area at night. Preferably, the skin should be hydrated for at least five minutes prior to application. The medication is washed off in the morning and if excessive drying and/or irritation is observed a bland cream or lotion may be applied. Once clearing is apparent, the occasional use of KERALYT GEL will usually maintain the remission. In those areas where occlusion is difficult or impossible, application may be made more frequently; hydration by wet packs or baths prior to application apparently enhances the effect. Unless hands are being treated, hands should be rinsed thoroughly after application. For use as a scalp treatment: KERALYT GEL should be applied directly to the affected areas of the scalp on a frequency directed by your physician. The applicator tip will provide accurate application, avoiding contact with normal hair or skin. The gel should be washed off after 10 to 20 minutes initially, but it can be left on for up to an hour as treatment progresses. The gel can be washed off using KERALYT SHAMPOO or warm water in a bath or shower.
DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION - For use as a concentrated scalp treatment BEFORE bathing: Do not wet hair. Twist open applicator tip and apply KERALYT SHAMPOO w/applicator evenly, directly to affected areas of the scalp. Leave on for 5 minutes, gradually increasing treatment time up to one hour, or as directed by physician. Wash hands after applying KERALYT SHAMPOO w/applicator. After treatment, rinse thoroughly with water. Although no additional shampoo is needed to cleanse hair, a non-medicated shampoo may be used if desired. For use as a medicated shampoo: Wet hair and apply KERALYT SHAMPOO w/applicator to the scalp. Work into a lather, leave on for several minutes, then rinse. Use daily until the condition clears. After clearing is apparent, use KERALYT SHAMPOO w/applicator occasionally to maintain clearing or as directed by your physician.
