Common Questions and Answers about Imiquimod no prescription

aldara

Avatar f tn They are persistent, they do not come or go. We've had them for a year now. They do not seem to be spreading. Diagnosis was acne or rash due to soap but we have ruled those out. The only treatment seems to be 30% hydrogen peroxide. The bumps are itchy. We tried Benzoil peroxide, neosporin and lotrimin with no results. We like to exchange back rubs but its not fun to feel all the bumps and the itching is bothersome.
Avatar n tn (I already have oral HSV1) 2) I have HPV with a small genital wart that I am treating with Imiquimod cream but has not yet gone away (the wart is on the other side of my penis, not the part of the penis that rubbed against her as I laid on my back, so I am sure the wart did not touch her) What is her risk of contracting genital warts from me??? 3) I would like to continue applying the Imiquimod cream, but I also want to monitor my penis over the next 14 days for any signs of herpes.
Avatar m tn Dear doctors , I have a small genital wart on my foreskin and I started to use imiquimod cream recently . The instruction says that I should use the imiquimod cream during bedtime . However , I have more erections during sleep (than day time ), the imiquimod cream might be wiped off by the underwear when I have an erection. In this case , Can I use imiquimod during the day instead of bedtime ?
Avatar m tn t worry, I used to have warts on my butts, and my doctor gave me Aldara cream 5% (imiquimod) and it went away within two weeks. Please ask you doctor for a prescription.
Avatar m tn Can anyone describe their experiences with Imiquimod? I am on the 3.75% cream which my doctor has told me to use every other day for a month. In the first 2 weeks, nothing happened, only just a couple days ago I noticed a very slight indication that the medication might be working, but I'm still not sure. I have about 20-30 very small warts, and notice 2 or 3 of them showing a bit of redness and drying up a bit. Still not sure if this is due to the medication.
Avatar m tn 2, Is it useful for me to use Imiquimod with no genital warts? Or does Imiquimod useful to help me clear the hpv virus in three months? 3, I also have an ulcers on my penis a week ago which can be seen when it's wet (it become white), and it disappear after 5 days. I kind of thought it's because of the allergy of Imiquimod. But does herpes appear 3 months after the sex?
Avatar n tn I was prescribed Aldara (imiquimod) to get rid of a few perianal HPV warts since cryotherapy was only making it worse. After only about 2 weeks of usage almost all symptoms of the warts were gone however I now have perianal psoriasis in its place. That is one of the side-effects of imiquimod and it mainly strikes people whom are genetically prone to having psoriasis.
Avatar m tn taking 500mg paracetamol before imiquimod and 500mg next day worked, no fever or nausea (imiquimod takes 24hrs to make intf usually it is not right after you take it) the only sides that persisted mild muscles pains and strong lowering of vision
Avatar m tn ec_id=NCOMMS-20130305 Aldara is a cream used for topical treatment of non-melanoma skin cancer, and is thought to act through stimulation of anti-tumour immunity. The active ingredient, imiquimod, has been shown to stimulate toll-like receptor 7. Aldara also induces psoriasis-like lesions when applied to naive murine skin, and as such is used as a mouse model for psoriasis. Here we find that in naive murine skin, Aldara induces inflammation largely independently of toll-like receptor 7.
Avatar m tn If there are no warts present then you should have stopped using the cream as soon as they were gone. The itchiness is probably because of the cream. stop using it asap. If the warts come back then you would use it again. and only on the warts! I was told to use a Qtip to put the cream on the warts and not so much!
Avatar f tn warts are due to HPV virus, they develop and dont clear or reappear from time to time in people with damaged immune system due to unhealthy diet and life styles it is treated by imiquimod an interferon inducer cream, while doing imiquimod vitamin c by liposoms or injection (not normal vit c which is not absorbed by the stomach, only 10-16% gets absorbed by stomach), vitamin d3, good diet of fresh vegetables only, very little meat, sugars, fats, good sleep 8hrs minimum
Avatar f tn A couple of weeks ago i discovered warts on my genital area at the base of my penis and was diagnosed formally by my dr. I was prescribed imiquimod to be applied 3 days a week but heard apple cider vinegar does a great job of clearing warts. Is it a good idea to apply the imiquimod mon,wed, fri night and apple cider vinegar tues, thurs, saturday nights? Anyone tried this or have any results from either one they would share?
Avatar n tn There are a wide variety of treatments, all of which are designed to eliminate the lesions and kill the virus- these include freezing. laser treatments, and topical therapy with either prescription medications such as imiquimod or over the counter medications such as salacetic acid (the OTC preparations are, typically, less effective than therapy performed in the doctor's office or with prescription meds.
Avatar f tn I was successfully treated with Imiquimod cream for 3 weeks and confirmed that all visible warts had cleared. 6 months later I noticed 2 bumps in the perianal region (not where my original outbreak occurred and very unlike the vaginal warts) and sought treatment at Planned Parenthood where the practitioner removed them with TCA thinking that they could be HPV warts. 2 months ago, I noticed a very tiny bump near my anus and went in to Planned Parenthood again to have that looked at.
Avatar f tn I developed what my fiancé and I assumed was a skin tag on the shaft of my penis near the base (I've had other skin tags on various places on my body before and It looks identical). it has been there for probably a little over a year. I went to the dermatologist about two weeks ago to have a wart frozen on my hand. I figured while I was there I'd ask him about the "skin tag" on my penis. he said it is probably genital warts. My question is: could he be wrong?
Avatar m tn very good news my hbsag keeps going down, difficult to say if it is the effect of etv plus tdf combo or the imiquimod i used in 2012 or the maitake supplements i am taking now, anyway what matters is hbsag goes down: 20 apr 2012 7309iu/ml 21 jun 2012 5210iu/ml 16 nov 2012 3687iu/ml 10 jan 2013 4207iu/ml 28 feb 2013 3644iu/ml 27 mar 2013 4163iu/ml 22 may2013 3201iu/ml the maitake i am taking now is from puritans, i take from 6 to 9 caps a day, it has no sides so i take 3 times the s
Avatar m tn Stimulation with TLR7, TLR8 and TLR9 agonists did not significantly induce IP-10 or IL-6 production and, with the exception of imiquimod, did not inhibit HBV replication. Interestingly, the antiviral response induced by imiquimod was independent of innate immune activation, suggesting an additional mode of action that should be further investigated.
Avatar f tn I was referred to a gynecologist who suggested trying imiquimod. I decided to try tea tree oil, before trying imiquimod. The tea tree seemed to increase the itch, so I filled the imiquimod. I've since tried one application, I should be applying again this evening, but this point I am so stressed about the whole ordeal, I am thinking I should just get them surgically removed. They are now around my vaginal area, labia up to my anus (I apologize for being graffic...
556286 tn?1215553880 When he stood up, the backs of his legs had seeped through his pants. I am extremely worried. No one is taking this seriously, and It looks like it's just getting worse. He is exhaused from the discomfort of the rash and the Naval Hospita (he's retired military) seem to be dragging their feet in diagnosis and treatment... We NEED good advice...
Avatar f tn I went to the doctor because i thought i had gential warts on december 28th. I have 4 growths 2 larger and 2 smaller, she ruled out Herpes and was left believing it was either Molluscum or Gential Warts. She prescribed Aldara to me and I have been using it for the past 3 weeks which have made the bumps much smaller. I was also tested for Gonorrhea and Chlamydia, both tested negative.
Avatar n tn s available by prescription. it can be used off label but as you already know it pretty much tanked in the larger studies so it's really not worthwhile.
Avatar m tn rank=94 vitamin D is taken 3 months before therapy start and minimum level at start 32ng/ml i have already started taking vit D supplements because of severe deficency and since my positive experience i do suggest supplementation (no bone pains anymmore, no colds or flu are the first signs i saw)
