Cantharone and Cantharone Plus are for physician use only.
The normal action of CANTHARONE and CANTHARONE PLUS is to form a blister underneath the wart. This occurs within 24 hours of application. The blister formation kills the wart by cutting off its blood supply. Occasionally, there may be some blood in the blister fluid, don't be alarmed at this. The blister may also be painful, be inflated and itch. Your physician will recommend appropriate medication.
A Band-Aid or piece of clear tape will applied after the Cantharone is applied. In 4 hours, peel off the covering and wash the area carefully with soap and water to completely remove the Cantharone. If there is severe stinging or burning before the time is up, you can remove the tape or Band-Aid and wash the area sooner.
Several hours after this treatment, the wart and skin around it will become red and swollen. Later on, it may form a blister. CANTHARONE BLISTERS CAN BE UNCOMFORTABLE! You might even have a blood blister. Unfortunately, this is often what it takes to shrink a wart or molluscum. If your blister doesnıt break on its own, donıt break itthatıs your best protection from infection. If it is uncomfortable, you can puncture it with a sterile pin or needle, or snip it with a sterile scissors, which is a painless procedure. You can sterilize these instruments by holding under a hot flame until they become "red hot." Donıt peel off the roof of the blister; it will help to prevent any infection. You will get instant relief after the blister is punctured. Be sure to keep the site clean with plain tap water and cover it with antibiotic ointment (e.g. Bacitracin) or plain Vaseline and a Band-Aid. We used to think it was best to keep a wound uncovered to let it "air out" and form a scab, but studies have shown that wounds actually heal quicker the more they are covered and lubricated with ointment. So keep it covered with antibiotic ointment or Vaseline at all times until the wound has completely healed.
As you are finding out, the wart virus is very resistant to treatment. This is because it hides deep within the thick layers of your skin. There are no treatments available yet that will actually kill the wart virus. The best we can do is to shed the skin cells where the wart virus lives, layer by layer. This usually takes several treatments. The bigger and thicker your wart, the more treatments you will need. The most difficult warts to treat are plantar warts on the bottom of your feet and on the cuticles and under the nails of your fingers and toes.
