Can I stop using Canitross-DS Gel when I feel better?

Your symptoms may improve before the infection is completely cured. Therefore, completing the full course of treatment would be suggested even if you feel better.

What if I miss a dose?

Apply the missed dose as soon as you remember. Skip the missed dose if it is almost time for your next dose. Do not use extra medicine to make up for the missed dose.

Is it safe to use Canitross-DS Gel for an extended period of time?

Unless directed by a doctor, do not use Canitross-DS Gel for more than four weeks. If used for prolonged durations, the fungus may become resistant to Canitross-DS Gel.
