Patients may explore substitutes in the following scenarios:
Before you switch from Hard-Q Lotion to another medicine, here are some important points to keep in mind:
Same salt, different brands:
Most substitutes contain the same active ingredient - LACTIC ACID-16.7%W/W + SALICYLIC ACID-16.7%W/W, but the fillers, coating, or manufacturing quality may vary slightly.
Consult your doctor first:
Even if the salt is the same, your doctor can confirm if the substitute is right for your condition, dosage, and health history.
Watch out for allergies or reactions:
Some people may react differently to certain brands due to inactive ingredients. If you notice any side effects, inform your doctor immediately.
Price ≠ effectiveness:
A lower-priced substitute doesn't mean it's less effective. Many generic medicines work just as well as branded ones.
Check the dosage form and strength:
Always match the substitute’s strength (e.g., 5mg, 10mg) and form (tablet, capsule, syrup) with what your doctor prescribed.
Hard-Q Lotion is used in the treatment of skin conditions such as warts, veruccas, calluses, and corns. The detailed uses of Hard-Q Lotion are as follows:
Hard-Q Lotion is a combination of two keratolytic agents, Lactic acid and Salicylic acid, used in the treatment of skin conditions like warts and the removal of calluses and corns. Hard-Q Lotion breaks down and dissolves a skin protein known as keratin and removes dead skin cells, thereby softening skin. Lactic acid also possesses antiviral properties and kills the virus that causes verrucas and warts.
The substitutes of Hard-Q Lotion contain the same active salt(s) - LACTIC ACID-16.7%W/W + SALICYLIC ACID-16.7%W/W. However, they may differ in price, manufacturing quality, and inactive ingredients. Speak to your doctor to find a suitable option.
Switching to a generic substitute medicine in the place of Hard-Q Lotion is often possible if it has the same salt, strength, and dosage form. But always check with your doctor before making any changes to your medication.
Generics versions of Hard-Q Lotion are typically more affordable because they don’t include the original brand's research, development, and marketing costs. They contain the same active ingredient and are approved for safety and effectiveness.
Most people don’t notice any difference. However, some may react to different fillers or coatings. If you notice any unusual symptoms after switching, consult your doctor.
Make sure the new medicine has the same active salt, strength, dosage form. Always confirm the change with your doctor or pharmacist.

Hard-Q Lotion is used to treat skin conditions like warts and remove calluses and corns.
Hard-Q Lotion contains Lactic acid and Salicylic acid that works by breaking down a skin protein known as keratin and removes dead skin cells, thereby softening the skin. Thereby, helps in the removal of warts, corns and calluses.
Verrucas and warts are caused by a virus and can be contagious (spread from person to person through close skin contact or contaminated surfaces), especially if the skin is damaged or wet. Therefore, avoid sharing towels, pumice stones or other things with others to prevent the spread of infection.
Hard-Q Lotion is highly flammable (catches fire and burns easily). Therefore, avoid smoking or going near naked flames after applying Hard-Q Lotion.
Yes, Hard-Q Lotion may cause permanent damage to the clothes, fabrics, metal, jewellery or polished surfaces if it comes in contact with them. Therefore, apply Hard-Q Lotion carefully and avoid contact of Hard-Q Lotion with clothes, metals or polished surfaces.
Hard-Q Lotion may cause irritation of the skin if it comes in contact with healthy skin. Therefore, apply Hard-Q Lotion carefully only on the top of warts, verrucas, calluses and corns and avoid surrounding normal skin. However, if the irritation persists or worsens, please consult a doctor.
You are recommended to use Hard-Q Lotion for as long as your doctor has prescribed it. However, if the condition persists or worsens after 12 weeks of treatment with Hard-Q Lotion, please consult a doctor.
Wash your hands before and after applying Hard-Q Lotion. You are advised to soak the affected area in warm water for 2-3 minutes and let it dry thoroughly. Apply a thin coating of Hard-Q Lotion to the top of warts, verrucas, calluses and corns only. Then, let it dry for a few minutes to form a small white patch that is water-resistant and sticks to the treated area. The next evening, before applying the Hard-Q Lotion, carefully peel off the white patch and repeat the same process. Avoid contact of Hard-Q Lotion with normal skin, nose, mouth, eyes, breasts, armpits or genital area. If it accidentally comes into contact with these areas, rinse with water thoroughly.
If you accidentally apply Hard-Q Lotion to normal skin, it may cause irritation, redness, or a burning sensation. Immediately wash the affected area with soap and water to remove the solution. However, consult your doctor if you experience severe or persistent irritation.
The common side effects of Hard-Q Lotion are burning sensation, itching, scaling, skin dryness, mild tingling sensation, or tenderness at the application site. Please consult your doctor if any of these side effects persist or worsen.
Do not apply Hard-Q Lotion on or near your face, armpits, breasts, open wounds or genital area. Also, avoid using it on birthmarks, moles, warts with hair growing from them or any other spots.
If you inhale the excess vapour, it may make you feel light-headed. In such a case, get plenty of fresh air and consult your doctor immediately if it worsens or persists for a long time.
Hard-Q Lotion is not recommended for use in children under 2 years of age. Children under 12 years should only use the medicine with help from an adult. However, consult your doctor before using the Hard-Q Lotion.
