About Kerasol-F Lotion 25 ml

Kerasol-F Lotion 25 ml belongs to a class of drugs called 'keratolytic agents' used to treat skin conditions like warts and remove calluses and corns. Verrucas and warts are small excessive growths of skin that are caused by a virus. Warts occur on the back of hands or fingers whereas verrucas occur only on the sole. Corns and calluses are thick, hard pads of skin caused by friction and pressure that usually occur on the feet due to poor-fitting shoes.

Kerasol-F Lotion 25 ml is a combination of two keratolytic agents, namely: Lactic acid and Salicylic acid. Kerasol-F Lotion 25 ml works by breaking down a skin protein known as keratin and removes dead skin cells, thereby softening skin. Kerasol-F Lotion 25 ml acts as an acid exfoliant that softens and dissolves the keratin. Besides this, it also helps to slow down the shedding of skin, thereby allowing the skin to function longer before flaking off. Thus, Kerasol-F Lotion 25 ml softens and dissolves keratin (skin protein) and prevents acne formation and further bacterial skin infections.

Most of these side effects of Kerasol-F Lotion 25 ml do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

If you are allergic to Kerasol-F Lotion 25 ml or any other medicines, please tell your doctor. If you are pregnant or a breastfeeding mother, it is advised to consult a doctor before using Kerasol-F Lotion 25 ml. Avoid applying to surrounding healthy skin, especially in children as it may irritate. You need not cover the treated area with sticking plaster.
