Hello,
Thanks for the query,
Loprox is an anti fungal agent.
You should wash your feet thoroughly, then apply Loprox.
The next day approximately at same time, you should wash the foot again, better using a scrub to remove the remains of previous medication as well as dead skin.
Dry the feet and apply medication again.

I could not find anything related in the pdf file attached by you.
Let me know if you have any doubt.
