Can I use this for a simple bacterial skin infection?
No. This medication is specifically designed for fungal infections and inflammatory skin conditions like eczema or psoriasis. It is not an antibacterial treatment.

Yes, it is highly effective for athlete’s foot (tinea pedis). It treats the fungus while quickly soothing the burning and itching sensations between the toes.
Should I cover the area with a bandage after applying?
No, you should not cover the treated area with bandages or dressings unless your doctor specifically tells you to. Covering it can increase the absorption of the steroid, which might lead to more side effects.
Can I use this lotion on my face?
You should only use it on your face if directed by a doctor. Be extremely careful to avoid your eyes, nose, and mouth, as the steroid component can thin the skin on the face if used improperly.
What should I do if I get the lotion in my eyes?
Rinse your eyes immediately with plenty of cool water. If irritation persists or your vision changes, contact a healthcare professional right away.
Can I apply more lotion to make the infection go away faster?
No. Overusing the lotion will not speed up the healing process; instead, it may increase the risk of skin thinning or other steroid-related side effects.
What should I do if the infection doesn't improve?
If you see no improvement after the full prescribed course, or if the condition gets worse, inform your doctor. You may need a different type of treatment.
