Salactol Wart Paint is a treatment for warts, verrucas, corns and calluses.
How Salactol Wart Paint works
Salactol Wart Paint contains salicylic and lactic acids, which break down the keratin in the affected skin area and kill the virus that causes warts or verrucas.
It also softens hard skin, making removing with a pumice stone or emery board easier.
Directions
Always use Salactol Wart Paint exactly as described in the patient information leaflet or as your doctor / Chemist4U pharmacist has told you.
Salactol Wart Paint should be applied to the affected area of the skin once a day, usually in the evening.
Soak the affected area in warm water for 2-3 minutes and then dry the area thoroughly (using your own towel). Gently rub away any loose or hard skin from the surface of the wart, verruca, corn or callus with an emery board or pumice stone.
Use the applicator to apply a few drops of the paint to the top of the affected area, allowing each drop to dry for a few minutes before applying the next. Avoid spreading the paint onto any healthy skin.
If the treated area is on the sole of the foot, cover it with a plaster to help prevent the infection from spreading.
Repeat the process every evening until the affected area has healed.
Some warts and verrucas require up to 12 weeks of treatment before completely disappearing. If the affected area has not disappeared after 12 weeks, you should ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice.
