Aldara Cream Information

Aldara Cream Use

Aldara is a prescription cream that treats external genital warts.

How Aldara 5% Cream works

Aldara 5% cream works by stimulating your own body's immune system to fight the virus that causes genital warts.

How to use Aldara Cream

Use Aldara cream exactly as directed by your doctor. Aldara should typically be used once a day 3 times a weak: Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, or Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. For best results apply Aldara cream at bedtime after bathing. Before you use Aldara wash your hands completely. Apply a thin layer of cream on the affected area(s). When you're done, wash your hands and discard the open packet. Leave the cream on for 6 to 10 hours then wash with soap and water.

Aldara precautions

Aldara should not be applied to warts inside the vagina or anus. Aldara cream may weaken the effectiveness of condoms and diaphragms. Before engaging in sexual activity, wash excess cream off with soap and water. Aldara is not a cure for genital warts. Therefore you should exercise caution when engaging in sexual activity with others, even when warts are completely gone. During treatment DO NOT cover warts with bandages or any other closed dressings.

What to tell your doctor

The effectiveness and safety of Aldara cream has not been studied in pregnant women. If you are pregnant or nursing check with your doctor and see if Aldara is right for you.
