Can I use Lofena if I have sensitive skin?
Yes, but be mindful that Lofena may cause minor skin irritations. Always test on a small patch of skin first and consider talking to a dermatologist if you're worried.
I missed a dose of Lofena, what should I do?
Simply apply it as soon as you remember, unless it's close to the time for your next application. In that case, just skip the missed dose and stick with your regular schedule. Don't double up the doses.
