Few months back I was diagnosed with balanitis. My doctor prescribed propyderm NF for 1 week. After using it for 1week, fungal infection was completely cured. But few days later it reoccurred and i used the same cream. It was cured for the moment. Due to the recurrence of balanitis, I used the cream for last 3months (daily). Yesterday I visited my doctor and told the whole story. And he said,'you shouldn't be using that cream more than 1week'. After hearing this I am little bit afraid. Is there any severe side effects for propyderm NF? Can I use the cream for long term?
