Applying Tioconazole just before bedtime may be preferred. Cream: Apply once or twice daily, in the morning and/or evening. Up to 6 weeks of treatment may be needed for chronic hyperkeratotic tinea pedis. Suppository: Insert one 300 mg suppository into the vagina as a single dose, preferably at bedtime. For patients who have improved but are not completely cured, a repeat dose one week later may be effective.
