Wondering how to work out dosages on medicated creams (Non Anabolic)

[ruffcute]

I needed to work out the dosage on a cream. But not usually working with creams or anything like this Im having difficulty trying to figure it out.

The cream is medicated and has 80g in the bottle and is at a concentration of 2.5% of whatever the chemical it is (Im at work and cant recall the actual name)
apparently I need to use 0.2 mg per kg of body weight. Im 100 kg so I need 20 mg of cream per application.

Am I missing something here. How would I work that out?

Any help please.

hmmmmmmmmmm

did the MD give you any directions?

[ruffcute]

No none. I called the drug store and they wernt able to help either, they just seem confused.

Should the medication have some g/mg indication on there.

how did you obtain this medicine?

no prescription?

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

I had it prescribed to me in the UK a few years ago, and had my brother bring it over recently. Its still in date and still effective, but I forgot what the doctor told me about the application.

I asked my general doctor and she couldn't even find it on her system as it was from abroad, so she said she couldn't help.

Its a cream and you are not eating/injesting it so just use however much you need to put on the affected area and call it good.

Ever consider calling the doctor who initially prescribed it on the telephone and asking him/her?

What is it? Where did you obtain the dosing guideline?

If all else fast, Google
