    Warticon Cream is only to be used on the affected skin. Do not take Warticon Cream by mouth. Do not apply Warticon Cream to warts on the inside of the penis, vagina or rectum. Warticon Cream should only be applied to warts on the outside skin. Avoid applying Warticon Cream to healthy skin surrounding the wart.

    How to use Warticon Cream

    Always use Warticon Cream exactly as your doctor has told you. Check with your doctor or pharmacist if you are not sure. Using Warticon Cream
    • Apply Warticon Cream twice a day, in the morning and evening (every 12 hours) for 3 days.
    • Do not apply any cream for the next 4 days. This completes one treatment course.
    • When you apply Warticon cream, after two or three days you may notice a mild irritation of the areas treated. This shows that Warticon Cream is starting to work. However, Warticon Cream can cause severe skin reactions. If this occurs, stop using Warticon Cream and seek medical attention.
    • If you still have any warts remaining 7 days after you started using the cream, repeat the treatment course (twice a day for 3 days followed by 4 days where you do not use the cream).
    • A maximum of 4 treatment courses may be applied.
    • If any warts remain after 4 treatment courses consult your doctor.
    How to apply Warticon Cream
    1. Wash the affected areas with soap and water. Dry the area gently with a clean towel.
    2. Using a fingertip, apply Warticon Cream to cover each wart. Use only enough cream to cover each wart.
    3. Rub the cream into the wart. Be careful not to get the cream onto healthy skin. If this happens, wash the cream off with soap and water.
    4. Wash your hands thoroughly.
    5. Make sure you have screwed the lid back on tightly.
    If you get Warticon Cream in your eyes or if you swallow it
    • If you get Warticon Cream in your eye, rinse the eye thoroughly with water and talk to your doctor.
    • If you accidently get Warticon Cream in your mouth, rinse at once with water.
