I'm really worried about my 3-year-old daughter who has hand, foot, and mouth disease. Her doctor suggested applying hhfudic cream three times a day for 10 days. I'm just wondering if it's really okay to use it like that. Is there anything else I should know or do?

No need to worry that's a viral infection and is usually self limiting, follow as your doctor advised and you can use the cream no problem, hygiene practice is the main stay for cure and prevention.

View allI'm a bit concerned about the prescription my dermatologist gave. She's put me on Aprezo 30 mg to be taken every night for 10 days, and then she wants me to up it to 12 tablets for the next 20 days. Is this medication safe to take like that? Just want to make sure it's okay for me.
Aprezo 30mg is a medication containing Apremilast, which is used to treat certain types of skin conditions such as psoriasis. The dosage regimen prescribed by your dermatologist is commonly used to gradually introduce the medication to your system and minimize potential side effects. Starting with 14 tablet daily at night for 10 days and then increasing to 12 tablet for the next 20 days is a safe and effective way to titrate the dose of Aprezo. This regimen helps your body adjust to the medication and reduces the risk of adverse reactions.
