What if I miss a dose of Arousal cream for women?
Short answer
If your prescription is for use before activity, there is usually no missed dose to make up. Follow your label rather than applying extra cream later. If your physician prescribed a different schedule, ask what to do about a missed application. Never double the amount to catch up.
If your label directs you to use Arousal cream for women only before sexual activity, skipping an application does not create a dose you need to replace. Do not apply it later just to make up for the missed use. Always follow the schedule your physician prescribed.
If you forgot to apply it before activity, do not use extra cream to try to get a faster effect. Results vary. The typical directions mention use about 15 minutes before activity, but your physician and label determine your timing, dose, and limits on repeat use.
If you are unsure whether you already applied a dose, avoid adding another application until you have checked with your pharmacist or physician. Write down when you use it if that helps you keep track.
Some people may receive different directions based on their health history. Ask your prescriber for a clear missed-dose plan if you have scheduled use rather than use only before activity.
