Indications Ferozola

It is used for various warts (plantar, common or filiform), pointed epidermal condylomas, keratomas, dry calluses, and papillomas.

Release form

The substance is released in the form of a solution for external treatment.

Pharmacodynamics

The drug has a complex effect - it has a bactericidal and cauterizing effect. The specificity of its effect is based on irreversible protein coagulation (relative to proteins that are vital for bacterial structures), as a result of which microbes lose their activity and die. The drug affects a large number of viruses, bacteria, fungi and protozoa.

Cauterizing activity develops during the destruction of macromolecules in the area of the cells of the mucous and epidermal fibers. Interaction with any tissues of the body leads to the development of chemical burns.

Dosing and administration

The medicine is allowed to be used exclusively for treating the epidermis. It is applied specifically to the area that needs to be treated, and a small wooden stick is used for this. Care must be taken to ensure that the substance does not come into contact with mucous and healthy areas of the epidermis.

Filiform warts and papillomas smaller than 2 mm should be treated with the solution once. For warts 2-3 mm in size, as well as larger papillomas, 3-4 treatments are required (small intervals should be left between procedures so that the substance can dry).

Before removing warts in the area of the hands, which have a keratinized dense surface, as well as dry calluses, keratomas and warts on the soles, it is necessary to first remove the horny layers from the treatment area. To do this, use a keratolytic ointment, which is applied for several subsequent hours. The area treated with ointment is then covered with polyethylene film or compress paper, and at the same time sealed with adhesive tape or bandaged with gauze. After removing these bandages, the skin is steamed using a hot soapy solution with added soda for 10-15 minutes, and then the horny layers are removed using tweezers or manicure scissors.

It is necessary to treat the epidermis with Ferezol several times, taking 3-4 minute breaks between procedures to allow the product to dry:

• warts on the soles or hands are treated 7-10 times;
• dry calluses or keratomas – 3-4 times.

To prevent burning of healthy areas of the epidermis, they can be treated with zinc paste, which is removed with dry gauze after using the drug.

It is recommended to remove pointed condylomas from a specialist in a clinic. In these cases, the drug should be applied 1-2 times with a 3-4 minute interval.

The medicine can be used again after 6-8 days after the crust falls off. A maximum of 4-5 such procedures are allowed.

When crystals appear in the bottle, it is necessary to heat it in a water bath (temperature – about 30 ^o C), while gently shaking the solution. After the formed crystals dissolve, the substance is ready for use.

Reviews

Ferezol is quite often used as a medicine. People who have used it for warts generally leave positive reviews about it. But it should be taken into account that the medicine must be used in full compliance with the instructions.

The user comments also say that the drug is quite painful. Quite often it leaves scars and burns on the epidermis. Because of this, most patients prefer to use other methods of treatment - cauterization with a laser or freezing.

It is important to remember that the medicine should be used only after consultation with a doctor.
