Hi!
Welcome to Healthcaremagic. com.
I have read your query in detail and do understand your concern.

The usual dose is 20 mg on alternate days in the morning after food.
However the dose may be increased or decreased depending on physical examination by your doctor.
2 hours later, sunlight exposure is given for 10-15 minutes over the white patches.

Hope this helps!

Good luck!
