Directions for use

• Adults, adolescents and children over 6 years of age: Apply a thin layer of Topalind to the affected areas two to three times a day and rub in gently. Once the condition has improved, Topalind should usually only be applied once a day or every 2nd or 3rd day. Even after the symptoms have subsided, Topalind should continue to be applied for a few days to prevent the disease from flaring up again.
• Use in children under 6 years of age: You may only treat your child with Topalind if the doctor has prescribed Topalind for the child.
• Method of application: Topalind is applied to the skin in a thin layer and gently rubbed in. When applying to the face, care must be taken to ensure that Topalind does not get into the eyes.
• Duration of treatment: Topalind is intended for short-term application to the skin (max. 2 weeks) in adults, adolescents and children aged 6 years and over. The duration of treatment depends on the success of the therapy and should be continued for a few days after the symptoms have subsided in order to prevent the disease from flaring up again. Treatment lasting longer than two weeks may only be carried out under medical supervision. The duration of treatment for children should be kept to a minimum. Please talk to your doctor or pharmacist if you have the impression that the effect of Topalind is too strong or too weak.
