I was prescribed a cream (2 times a day) of Monistat 2% and hydrocortisone 1% for irritation/redness on the glans. I used it for 7 days and there was improvement, but it's not completely gone. Is there a maximum number of days for taking this medication?

It is recommended to not continue using the cream for more than 7 days, as the Monistat should be used for a specific duration in the case of irritation caused by Candida, and cortisone cream should not be used for an extended period of time due to its absorption rate. If symptoms persist after 10-14 days, it is advisable to seek medical advice.
