Question

Could you help me out with something? I'm a 72-year-old male dealing with ringworm on my abdomen and back. It's really itchy. I've got diabetes and I'm taking Metolar, Ecosprin, and Metformin. Is it safe for me to try taking Can 150 mg for three days for this issue? Would appreciate your advice.

The thing is, the instructions say I need to see a doctor before using it. Can you help me understand how and when I should use this cream? Is it really necessary to consult a doctor first?
