Buy Aldara Cream Online

(Imiquimod)

The active ingredient in Aldara is imiquimod, an immune response modifier. This medication stimulates your body’s own immune response. This helps your body fight against abnormal skin cells, cancer cells, and viruses to resolve superficial basal cell carcinoma, actinic keratosis, and warts caused by HPV.

Follow all directions given to you by your doctor and read all documents provided, including the full Prescribing Information, FDA-Approved Product Labeling, Instructions for Use, and Medication Guide before using Aldara. However, the following is a synopsis of the general guidelines for the use of Aldara:

-Cleanse the skin with a mild soap and let it dry fully.

-Apply a thin layer of cream to the affected area.

-Rub in the cream until it is no longer visible. Wash your hands after each application.

-Leave the cream on for 8 hours overnight. Do not cover the treated areas with any type of plastic bandaging, and avoid nylon underwear. You may wear cotton gauze or underwear over the treated area.

-Wash off the cream with soap and water in the morning.

For the treatment of superficial basal cell carcinoma (SBCC), the cream should be applied five nights per week for 6 weeks. It should be applied to the lesion and to a 1cm margin of healthy skin around the lesion. You should be reassessed by your doctor after 12 weeks.

For the treatment of actinic keratosis, the cream should be applied to an area no more than 25cm2 twice per week for 16 weeks.

For the treatment of genital warts, Aldara cream should be applied to an area no more than 20cm2 three times per week until resolution of the warts, for up to 16 weeks. If you are using the cream to treat an area under the penis foreskin, you should pull back the foreskin to clean the area every morning.

If you miss a dose of Aldara, do not apply a larger quantity. Skip the missed dose and apply a thin layer of cream as per your dosing schedule.
