Dosage & Administration
Directions Apply Salicylic Acid 6% Gel thoroughly to the affected area and occlude the area at night. Preferably, the skin should be hydrated (soaked in water) for at least five minutes prior to application. The medication is washed off in the morning. In those areas where occlusion is difficult or impossible, application may be made more frequently.
