About

The dose and frequency will be decided by your doctor based on your condition, response to treatment, and tolerance. Do not stop or alter the treatment schedule unless advised by your doctor. Incorrect use or overdose may cause serious side effects. It may take weeks or months before you notice improvement, so continue treatment as prescribed.
