View allI was prescribed Halox S solution to use before bed and then shampoo it out the next morning. However, it's just a 30ml bottle, so I'm wondering if I should be diluting the solution or using it differently to make it last longer?
No, continue same treatment as advised by the dermatologist.

I'm a bit confused about the Halovate F ointment I was prescribed. I'm currently breastfeeding, and I noticed the instructions say it's not recommended for that. I asked the dermatologist again, and she reassured me it's fine. But I just want to be completely sure. Can you shed some light on this?
Halovate F ointment's instructions advise against use during breastfeeding, but your dermatologist reassures it's safe. To be 100% sure, consult another specialist or a lactation expert, considering factors like the ointment's absorption rate and potential effects on milk.
