Usage Instructions
Cantharone® is specifically designed for topical application by physicians. This makes it an excellent choice for treating children due to its painless application and absence of instruments. The effectiveness of Cantharone® is derived from the acantholytic action of its active ingredient, cantharidin, which causes "exfoliation" of the wart without extending beyond the epidermal cells.
