This medicine can make your skin more sensitive to sunlight. Try to avoid exposure to sunlight as much as possible and use sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) when you are outdoors after consulting your doctor.
You might start to see an improvement in 6 weeks after using this medicine and takes approximately 8-12 weeks to see the complete effects.

If, however, your skin has not improved even after completing the prescribed time, consult your doctor.
Get medical help right away if you have signs of allergic reaction such as skin redness, rash, hives, itching, blisters, and swelling of the face, lips, or tongue.
