1 teaspoon = 5 cc (NOT 5 mg)
If you are unsure of how to dose this medication, ask you doctor or pharmacist for a syringe to measure the cream properly.
A cc is a pretty small amount, and it would be easy to overdose by mistake if you do not measure the amount correctly.

Presumably this means that 1 cc of cream contains 5mg of active ingredient. So a level 5ml measuring spoon would contain 25mg of the active ingredient. One cc (cubic centimetre) is the same as one ml (millilitre, one thousandth part of a litre)
But what dose is prescribed? What is the actual question?

This is easy: 5mg = 1 teaspoon (measuring spoon, please).
