VERRUGON Ointment Ref.[49659] Active ingredients: Salicylic acid

For Adults, Elderly and Children from 6 years onwards

1. Fix the self adhesive ring with the hole over the verruca.
2. Squeeze a little Verrugon ointment into the hole and directly on to the verruca.
3. Cover ring completely with plaster. Seal into position.
4. Wash hands after use.
5. Repeat treatment daily after gently pumicing or filing off the dead part of the verruca.

To prevent transferring infection the emery board should only be used by the patient and only for the verruca. Do not use to file nails.

Visible improvement should occur in 1 to 2 weeks but it can take up to 12 weeks for complete removal.

Symptoms of acute systemic salicylate poisoning have been reported after the application of salicylic acid to large areas of skin and for prolonged periods. Symptoms include dizziness, tinnitus, deafness, sweating, nausea and vomiting, headache and confusion. In children drowsiness and metabolic acidosis commonly occur, hypoglycaemia may be severe.

Salicylism may also occur in the unlikely event of large quantities being ingested. Salicylism is unlikely to occur if Verrugon is used as indicated.

Accidental oral ingestion should be treated immediately as recommended by the National Poisons Information Service.
