Your doctor will tell you how much medicine to use. Depending on how quickly your skin ulcer heals, your doctor may change the dose of your medicine. Use of more medicine than your doctor prescribed will not help your skin ulcer heal more quickly.
Topical application routeWash your hands with soap and water before and after you use this medicine.
Squeeze the gel onto a clean surface that will not absorb the medicine, including a piece of wax paper. Do not apply the medicine directly from the tube onto the skin.
Use a cotton swab, tongue depressor, or other applicator aid to spread an thin, even layer of gel over the surface of the skin ulcer.
Cover the skin ulcer with a gauze dressing that has been moistened with saline solution. Leave the skin ulcer covered for 12 hours. After 12 hours, remove the gauze. Carefully rinse the skin ulcer with saline or water to remove any medicine that remains. Do not apply more medicine. Put another saline-moistened gauze dressing on the area for the next 12 hours.
Do not let the tip of the tube touch the skin ulcer or any other object. Close the tube tightly after each use.
This medicine should come with a Medication Guide. Ask your pharmacist for a copy if you do not have one.
