Using advice

Before using this cream, you must thoroughly clean and dry the affected area of skin or mucous membrane. Unless otherwise instructed by your doctor, FENTICONAZOLE BAILLEUL 2%, cream should be applied to the affected area of skin or mucosa in a thin layer and lightly massaging, once or twice a day.
