Do I apply Metrogel once or twice a day?

This is  an often asked question.

  • Should I apply Metrogel once or twice day?
  • Does Metrogel work better twice a day?
  • Does Metroceam work better than Metrogel ?
  • Does Metrolotion work better than Metrogel?

Well some research is suggesting that it actually doesn’t make any difference:  (lotion, cream, gel, generic equivalents, metrogel 1%, once per day, twice per day)

Metrogel, Metrolotion, Metrocream, Noritate, once and twice per day – all the same same !!
