Dermatology Drugs 5-Flourouracil (5-FU) in Propylene Glycol - 5-Fluorouracil is most often prescribed for actinic keratoses and Bowen disease (in situ squamous cell carcinoma). It destroys sun-damaged skin cells so the skin appears smoother and more youthful. It works best on face and scalp, and is less effective on other areas. Fluorouracil is also occasionally used to treat the following skin conditions: (Superficial basal cell carcinoma, Psoriasis, Viral warts, Genital warts, Disseminated superficial porokeratosis & linear porokeratosis) How should it be used: 5-Fluorouracil is a powerful, destructive medication and must be used exactly as directed. Keep it locked up so other people cannot mistakenly use it to treat a rash. It should not be used during pregnancy. It is best to use 5-fluorouracil during the winter months, generally for two to eight weeks. Sometimes 5-fluorouracil is prescribed with tretinoin cream. This combination works best if the tretinoin has been used for at least two weeks prior to starting 5-fluorouracil. Tretinoin cream enhances the effect of 5-fluorouracil by peeling off the top layer of skin. It reduces the time required for the course of 5-fluorouracil treatment. Tretinoin cream can be continued afterwards long term to reduce the signs of photoageing and prevent deterioration of course, using very careful sun protection. The 5-FU cream is applied once or twice a day after washing the area that is to be treated with plain water. A tiny amount of the cream should be gently rubbed into all of the treatment areas with a fingertip. It is important to apply it to all the skin and not just visible lesions. Afterwards rinse the finger thoroughly with water (or use a glove to apply the 5-FU). 15gm = $19.95 30gm = $37.50 60gm = $55.00 Tretinoin in Vanishing Cream - Tretinoin is used to treat acne.
