Hmm...need more info: Melanocyl is a powerful photosensitizer and is generally taken or applied before receiving light therapy. Usually either the cream or the tablet is used--the cream if localized area, the tablet if larger areas will be treated. You should talk with your doctor to clarify his or her instructions on this as using it incorrectly can cause serious burns and other issues.
