Volini Gel dosage

Wash and dry the affected area before applying the gel. Apply a thin layer of the gel to the affected area and gently rub it in. Do not cover the area or apply a hot bag to it after application. Keep the area away from water for at least 1 hour to prevent the medicine from getting rinsed off. Wash your hands after applying the medicine, unless you are treating your hands. Do not apply right before, during, or after activities that raise skin temperature such as bathing, swimming, or heavy exercise; wait until your skin has cooled before applying. Apply only to intact skin, not to wounds or open injuries. For external use only; do not swallow it.
