Product Description:

Verrumal is a cutaneous liquid used to remove warts. The solution contains two active ingredients:

- fluorouracil, which slows down the growth of warts, and

- salicylic acid, a medicine that softens the epidermis.

The average duration of treatment is six weeks. Verrumal is a prescription-only medicine.

How to use:

Verrumal cutaneous liquid should be applied to warts only. Do not apply to normal healthy areas of skin. To protect the healthy skin, put petroleum gel (Vaseline) or another greasy ointment on skin around each wart. Allow the liquid to dry for five minutes before putting on clothes. Verrumal forms a thin layer over the wart, which should be removed every time you apply a new layer. Do not use this medicine on large areas of the skin: the area treated should not exceed 25 square cm (5 cm x 5 cm of skin). Wash your hands thoroughly after applying the liquid and avoid contact with the eyes, mouth and nose.
