Nizoral comes as a tablet to take by mouth, in skin cream and shampoo. The tablet is usually taken once a day for 1 week or longer. The cream is used once or twice a day for 2 to 4 weeks. The shampoo is used two times a week, about every 3 days, for 4 weeks. Follow the directions on your Nizoral prescription label carefully, and ask your doctor or pharmacist to explain any part you do not understand. Take Nizoral exactly as directed. Do not take more or less of it or take it more often than prescribed by your doctor.
To use the cream, thoroughly clean the infected area, allow it to dry and then gently rub Nizoral medication in until most of it disappears. Use enough Nizoral medication to cover the affected area. You should wash your hands after applying the medication.
To use the shampoo, wet the hair and put enough shampoo on the hair so you can wash hair and scalp. Gently rub entire scalp and leave shampoo on for 1 minute. Rinse all the shampoo off. Then put on the Nizoral shampoo again, rub gently into hair and scalp, let it stay on for 3 minutes, and then rinse to finish.
Continue to take or use Nizoral even if you feel well. Do not stop taking Nizoral without talking to your doctor.
