I'm a 30-year-old guy, and my family doctor recently mentioned HIMCOLIN GEL to me because I sometimes struggle to keep an erection during sex. I'm wondering how regularly I can use it without any issues. Are there any side effects I should be aware of?

Himcolin gel can be applied about 30 minutes before intercourse as needed, but avoid using it more than once daily. It is generally safe, but some may experience mild skin irritation or burning. If discomfort persists or worsens, stop use and consult your doctor.
