Compound-W Instructions

Introduction

Welcome to the Greater Carolinas Women's Center, where we provide detailed instructions on how to effectively use Compound-W to remove unwanted warts. Our step-by-step guide will help you navigate through the process of using this highly trusted wart removal solution.

What is Compound-W?

Compound-W is a clinically-proven over-the-counter treatment for common warts and plantar warts. This powerful solution contains salicylic acid, a keratolytic agent that effectively breaks down the layers of the wart.

With the assistance of our detailed instructions, you can easily use Compound-W in the comfort of your own home, avoiding unnecessary visits to a healthcare professional.

Step-by-Step Guide to Using Compound-W

Step 1: Prepare the affected area

Before applying Compound-W, it's essential to properly clean and dry the affected area. Use mild soap and warm water to gently cleanse the wart and pat it dry.

Step 2: Apply Compound-W

Using the provided applicator, carefully apply a thin layer of Compound-W directly to the wart, ensuring you cover the entire surface. Be sure to avoid applying the solution to healthy surrounding skin.

Note: If you're using Compound-W Gel, wait for it to dry before proceeding to the next step.

Step 3: Protect healthy skin

Before moving on, it's essential to protect the surrounding healthy skin from exposure to the solution. You can do this by applying petroleum jelly or a similar protective substance to the skin surrounding the wart.

Step 4: Cover the wart

For added effectiveness, cover the wart with an adhesive bandage or tape. This will help maintain the solution's contact with the wart and protect it from external elements.

Step 5: Repeat the process

Repeat the application process daily, ensuring you follow the instructions on the product packaging. Monitor the progress and continue treatment until the wart is completely removed, which may take several weeks.

Precautions and Additional Tips

Prior to using Compound-W, it's important to keep the following precautions and tips in mind:

• Avoid using Compound-W on irritated or infected skin.
• Do not use the product on your face or genital warts.
• If you experience any adverse reactions or the condition worsens, discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional.
