FAQs
How to use Bifrazo 1% Lotion?
Before using Bifrazo 1% Lotion, clean and dry the affected area. Gently and thoroughly massage it into the skin. Be careful not to get the medication in your eyes or mouth. Use Bifrazo 1% Lotion once daily, preferably at night before going to bed, for two to three weeks or as advised by your doctor.
