FAQs
Can I stop using Zotobac Gel when I feel better?
No, do not stop using Zotobac Gel without consulting your doctor even if you are feeling better. Your symptoms may improve before the infection is completely cured. Therefore, for better and complete treatment, it is advised to continue your treatment for the prescribed duration.
How to use Zotobac Gel?
Before using Zotobac Gel, clean and dry the affected area. Gently and thoroughly massage it into the skin. Be careful not to get the medication in your eyes or mouth. If Zotobac Gel gets in your eyes accidentally, wash with plenty of water and call your doctor if your eyes are irritated.
What precautions do I need to take while using Zotobac Gel?
Be careful not to get Zotobac Gel into your eyes or mouth. If you happen to get it in your eyes, rinse off with plenty of water immediately and contact your doctor. You must not use Zotobac Gel if you are allergic to it or any of its ingredients. Tell your doctor if you notice any allergic reaction while using it for the first time. Inform your doctor if you are taking any medicines regularly, to prevent any allergic reaction with other medicines. Do not cover the area being treated with Zotobac Gel with a bandage, as this may increase absorption of this medicine and increase the side effects. Do not use more than what is recommended to relieve your symptoms faster. Using more than what is advised will only increase the side effects. Let your doctor know if you are planning to conceive. Pregnant and breastfeeding mothers should use Zotobac Gel only if prescribed by the doctor.
What should I do if I forget to use Zotobac Gel?
If you forget to use Zotobac Gel, do not worry and continue using Zotobac Gel as soon as you remember. However, if you are not sure and have any other doubts, please consult your doctor.
