Can I use Dac Gel for osteoarthritis in the hip?

Only apply to clean, dry skin that does not have any cuts, open wounds, infections, or rashes. Consult your doctor in case of any doubts.

You should also keep the treated area out of direct sunlight or you might develop a skin reaction.

Use this topical medicine for as long as prescribed by your doctor for maximum benefits.
Can I use any other moisturizer or sunscreen after applying Dac Gel?
