How should I use Ovace Plus?

Follow all directions on your prescription label. Do not use Ovace Plus in larger or smaller amounts or for longer than recommended.

You may need to shake the medicine before each use. Follow the directions on your medicine label.

Make sure the treatment area is clean and dry before using Ovace Plus cream, gel, lotion, or solution. Apply the medicine in a thin layer and rub in gently.

To use sulfacetamide sodium soap, wet the skin and apply enough of the medicine to work into a lather. Massage the lather on the skin gently and then rinse thoroughly with plain water. Pat the skin dry with a clean towel.

Apply the foam to dry hair when treating your scalp. Massage gently into the scalp until all the foam dissolves. Allow the foam to dry completely on the treated area.

Do not apply Ovace Plus over large skin areas.

Wash your hands after applying this medicine.

If you are using this medicine on your scalp, wash your hair with a non-medicated shampoo at least once per week during treatment.

Ovace Plus is usually applied 2 times per day for 8 to 10 days. Space your doses evenly by applying the medicine at the same times each day.

You may need to keep using the medicine once or twice per week, or once every other week. Follow your doctor’s instructions. Call your doctor if your condition comes back after you stop using Ovace Plus.

Call your doctor if your symptoms do not improve, or if they get worse while using this medicine.

Store at room temperature away from moisture and heat. Do not freeze.
