I've been dealing with a skin problem on my neck and shoulder, and I'm 23 years old. The doctor prescribed Zocon 200, but I forgot to ask how much time I should wait between doses. Can you guide me on the dosage?

Zocon 200, containing fluconazole, is typically taken once a day; the usual dosage interval is every 24 hours, but consult your doctor or the prescription label for specific guidance, as the exact timing may vary depending on your individual needs and treatment plan.

I'm experiencing some real trouble with my lips. They've been drying out and peeling every few days for about three months now. I've been using Tacrolimus, but nothing seems to be improving. It's really just my lower lip that's affected. It gets red, peels every third day, and any new skin that forms also dries out and flakes, especially when it comes into contact with water. It's starting to mess with my confidence. I think the problem started when I was experimenting with new lip balms. Could you help me figure out how to fix this? Having dry and flaky lips isn't aesthetically pleasing, and it's really starting to get me down.
