IMIQUAD CREAM 0.25 GM

How IMIQUAD CREAM 0.25 GM Works

• IMIQUAD CREAM 0.25 GM is a topical medication used to treat genital warts by stimulating the body's immune system. It prompts the immune system to release natural substances, such as cytokines, which then target and combat the virus responsible for causing the warts. These substances enhance the body's ability to fight off the viral infection locally.
• While the exact mechanism by which IMIQUAD CREAM 0.25 GM works on actinic keratosis (a precancerous skin condition) and basal cell carcinoma (a type of skin cancer) is not fully understood, it's believed to involve similar immune-stimulating effects. The medication encourages the immune system to recognize and attack the abnormal cells associated with these conditions.
• Researchers are continuously working to further unravel the precise ways in which IMIQUAD CREAM 0.25 GM interacts with the immune system in these different conditions. However, its effectiveness stems from its ability to activate the body's natural defenses against viral and cancerous cells.

Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them.

• Before applying IMIQUAD CREAM 0.25 GM, ensure the affected area is clean and completely dry. This meticulous preparation allows for optimal absorption of the cream, maximizing its therapeutic effect. Gently cleanse the area with a mild, unscented soap and pat it dry with a soft towel. Avoid vigorous rubbing, which could irritate the skin further. A clean, dry surface is paramount for the cream to penetrate effectively and deliver the intended results.
• Apply IMIQUAD CREAM 0.25 GM in the evening, typically two to three times per week, or as directed by your healthcare provider. It's crucial to adhere to the prescribed schedule for the best possible outcome. After application, allow the cream to remain on the skin for the recommended duration of 6 to 10 hours. In the morning, gently wash off the cream using a mild soap and water. Avoid harsh cleansers or excessive scrubbing.
• If you encounter any skin irritation, such as redness, dryness, or itching, consider using a gentle, fragrance-free moisturizer to alleviate the discomfort. Apply a thin layer of moisturizer to the affected area after washing off IMIQUAD CREAM 0.25 GM. Choose a moisturizer specifically designed for sensitive skin to minimize the risk of further irritation. Discontinue use and consult your healthcare provider if irritation persists or worsens.
• IMIQUAD CREAM 0.25 GM can increase your skin's sensitivity to sunlight. Therefore, it is essential to protect yourself from excessive sun exposure while using this medication. When venturing outdoors, apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with a high SPF to all exposed skin, and wear protective clothing, such as long sleeves and a wide-brimmed hat. Limit your time in direct sunlight, especially during peak hours.
• It is advisable to refrain from sexual contact while undergoing treatment with IMIQUAD CREAM 0.25 GM. This precaution helps to prevent potential irritation to your partner's skin. Additionally, the cream may weaken condoms and diaphragms, thereby reducing their effectiveness as contraceptives. Discuss alternative methods of contraception with your healthcare provider during the treatment period.

Avoid skipping applications, as this can diminish the effectiveness of IMIQUAD CREAM 0.25 GM. Conversely, do not over apply the cream, as this may increase the likelihood of experiencing adverse side effects. If you have any questions or concerns regarding the application schedule, consult your healthcare provider for clarification.
