The drug is applied precisely to the area to be treated with a special applicator or a small thin wooden stick, preventing it from falling on adjacent healthy areas of the skin and mucous membranes.

On small papillomas (up to 2 mm in size) and filiform warts, Verrukacid is applied once.

Larger papillomas and small warts (2-3 mm in size) are lubricated with the drug 3-4 times, taking breaks to dry the applied liquid.

Before removing warts with a dense keratinous surface on the hands, plantar warts, keratomas, dry calluses with Verrukacid, horny layers must be removed from their surface. To do this, a keratolytic ointment (for example, 10% salicylic or others) is applied for several hours, covering the lubricated area with compress paper or plastic wrap, and then using a gauze bandage. It is possible to stick it with an adhesive plaster. After that, the bandage or adhesive plaster is removed, the skin is steamed in hot water with the addition of soap and soda for 10-15 minutes and horny layers are removed (cut off with nail scissors or forceps).
