Instructions for Use

First, shave off any remaining hair on the patient’s head. Then, wash the scalp with alum water to remove blood and pus crusts. Apply the Sichuan Melia ointment to the affected area and rub it in vigorously. Change the dressing once daily or every other day; each time, wash the scalp with alum water to thoroughly remove old oil residue.
