How it works
Epiwart Solution is a combination of two medicines: Salicylic Acid and Lactic Acid. Salicylic Acid is a keratolytic medication. It works by breaking down the thick top layer of skin and increasing the amount of moisture in the skin. It causes the wart, corn, or callus to gradually peel off. Lactic acid works by forming a protective coating over the treated area. It helps to keep the area clean and also keeps the Salicylic Acid and moisture in contact with the skin.
Quick Tips
Epiwart Solution is used to treat skin warts and corns. Apply to the affected area(s) of the skin and leave on the skin for one to six hours. Always wear well fitted and comfortable shoes to exert less pressure on your feet. You may also use extra padding on your shoes for more comfort. Avoid using if the affected area is irritated, swollen, bleeding, has hair growing from it, or to warts that have recently had surgery on them. Do not apply this medicine to a mole or birthmark.
