Additional Information

• Fluorouracil 5% w/w Cream is used to treat actinic keratoses (sun-damaged skin) and certain superficial skin cancers.
• The active ingredient, fluorouracil, works by interfering with the growth of abnormal cells in the skin.
• Fluorouracil inhibits DNA synthesis, causing targeted destruction of precancerous and cancerous cells.
• This allows healthy skin to regenerate over time as damaged cells are removed.
• Use regularly as prescribed for optimal results, and complete the full course of treatment.
• Do not cover the area with bandages unless instructed by your doctor.
• Seek medical attention if skin irritation becomes severe or if symptoms persist after treatment.
