Information about Duofilm Solution

Duofilm solution contains Salicylic Acid and Lactic acid for the treatment of warts.
Warts are a viral disease in the surface skin layer. Topically applied salicylic acid is keratolytic. The keratolytic activity results from solubilisation of the intercellular ground substance in the stratum corneum and shedding of the scales which are bound by it.
Salicylic acid acts by achieving a slow, painless destruction of the thickened upper layer of skin.
Lactic acid enhances the activity of salicylic acid as well as having antiseptic properties.
Duofilm solution is recommended for the treatment for plantar and common warts, corns and calluses.

Directions for Use:
1. First soak the affected area in warm water for about 5 minutes.
2. Dry thoroughly. Apply 1 drop at a time to sufficiently cover each affected area. Let dry.
3. Cover the area with a small adhesive bandage or dressing
4. Unless your hands are being treated, be sure to wash your hands after each application.

Use under medical supervision

Deep seated corns need to be removed surgically from below its nucleus, lest it may regrow. Application of caps may soften it for some depth but may not be totally effective and takes very long to get cleared. Edit Answer
