Each product is made for a specific purpose, so choose the one suited to your problem and follow the pack instructions.

How Duofilm Solution works

Salicylic acid is a keratolytic, which means it loosens the bonds holding dead skin cells together so they shed more easily. This softens hard, thickened skin such as warts and corns, removes scales and helps unclog pores in acne. It also has mild anti-inflammatory properties.

Possible side effects

With Duofilm Solution, mild skin reactions are the most common side effects. These include:

• Dryness
• Peeling
• Mild stinging or burning
• Redness
• Irritation of surrounding healthy skin

Stop using it and seek help if you develop severe redness, blistering or swelling, or symptoms such as ringing in the ears, nausea, rapid breathing or confusion after using it on large areas.

Precautions and warnings

• Duofilm Solution is for external use only; keep it away from the eyes, mouth and broken or inflamed skin.
• Do not use strong wart or corn treatments if you have diabetes or poor circulation, and do not use them on the face, moles or birthmarks.
• Avoid applying it over large areas or for long periods, especially in children, as it can be absorbed through the skin.
• Protect the healthy skin around a wart or corn, and stop if irritation becomes severe.
• If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, or allergic to aspirin, check with a pharmacist before use.

Storage

Store below 30°C, away from direct sunlight. Keep the bottle tightly closed and do not use it after the expiry date or the period stated on the label once opened. Keep all medicines out of the reach of children.
