HOW TO USE THIS
MEDICATION
Renova is for use on the face as directed, usually
once a day at bedtime. Apply a pea-size amount
of cream to clean, dry skin on the face being
careful to avoid the eyes, nostrils and mouth.
Wash hands after use. Do not use this more often
than prescribed or in large amounts. It will not
give your faster or better results but will increase
the risk of side effects.
Do not use on sunburn or eczema or other serious
skin conditions. Effects of this medication will
be gradual with most improvement seen in the first
6 months of continued therapy. If used for acne
the condition may worsen at first, then improve.
MISSED DOSE
If you miss a dose, apply it as soon as remembered;
do not use it if it is near the time for the next
dose, instead, skip the missed dose and resume
your usual dosing schedule. Do not "double-up"
the amount used to catch up.
NOTES

conjunction with a comprehensive skin care and
sun avoidance program.
