Use salicylic acid and sulfur only as directed. Do not use more of it and do not use it more often than recommended on the label, unless otherwise directed by your doctor. Immediately after using salicylic acid and sulfur, wash your hands to remove any medicine that may be on them. Keep salicylic acid and sulfur away from the eyes. If you should accidentally get some in your eyes, flush them thoroughly with water.

To use the skin cleansing lotion: After wetting the skin, apply salicylic acid and sulfur with your fingertips or a wet sponge and rub in gently to work up a lather. Then rinse thoroughly and pat dry.

To use the shampoo or bar as a shampoo: Wet the hair and scalp with lukewarm water. Then apply enough medicine to work up a lather and rub into the scalp. Continue rubbing the lather into the scalp for several minutes or allow it to remain on the scalp for about 5 minutes, depending on the product being used, then rinse. Apply the medicine again and rinse thoroughly.

To use the bar as a soap: After wetting the skin, use salicylic acid and sulfur to wash the face and other affected areas. Then rinse thoroughly and pat dry.

Pediatric: Young children may be at increased risk of unwanted effects because of increased absorption of salicylic acid through the skin. Products containing salicylic acid should not be applied to large areas of the body or used for long periods of time in infants and children.

Geriatric: Many medicines have not been studied specifically in older people. Therefore, it may not be known whether they work exactly the same way they do in younger adults or if they cause different side effects or problems in older people. There is no specific information comparing use of salicylic acid and sulfur combination in the elderly with use in other age groups.
