Durasal is a topical solution for the treatment of common
and plantar warts containing 26% salicylic acid in a film-forming
vehicle.
Durasal comes with a brush applicator so it can be
easily painted onto the wart. The solution dries quickly
creating a film over the wart. No bandage is necessary.
Salicylic
acid is a time-tested safe and effective treatment for common
and plantar warts.
How does Durasal® work?
After
application, a thin film is quickly formed over the wart sealing
in the salicylic acid. The keratolytic activity of salicylic
acid results in the removal of epidermal cells infected with
wart viruses.
Visible improvement will normally be seen
during the first or second week of therapy. Maximum resolution
may take up to four to six weeks.
How do I use Durasal®?
For
best results, soak the wart in warm water for about five minutes
and then remove any loosened tissue with a brush, wash cloth
or emery board. After drying, brush Durasal on the wart avoiding
normal skin. Durasal will dry quickly forming a seal. No bandage
or other covering is necessary.
Durasal should not be used by
diabetics or patients with impaired blood circulation.
