Has anyone been prescribed Efudix 5%
Had a biopsy on my nose, earlier in the year . The result was Keratoses,never been abroad, never really sunbathed, wore a hat a lot of the time, i used to go walking/riding a lot when younger.
Went for my results the other day and have been prescribed Efudix 5%, have been warned that it will get a lot worse before it gets better, just wondering if any one on here, has had to use it and can tell me what to expect,

·1 year agoIt does the job When applied it does burn slightly and the goes red but it does clear the sun damage. I have used for many years. But you must keep the area treated out of the Sun it is painful if you don’t Iam bald so I always wear a hat in the Summer even when cloudy and no Sun the rays are actually stronger .
Hope this helps

·1 year agoActinic Keratosis comes with the sun and age and normally when suffering with this type of things one does use some Efudix 5% cream on the damaged skin for some 3 weeks and after one take for a couple of weeks some cream called FUCIDIN H and normally the skin bother will disappear and one use the creams as required for eventual repeats of the problem.
