Salatac Gel is a treatment for warts, verrucas, corns and calluses.
The active ingredients in this product are salicylic acid and lactic acid. These work by softening the hard skin growth, making it easier to remove with a pumice stone or emery board. They also help kill the virus that causes warts and verrucas. Salatac Gel is suitable for use by adults, children and the elderly.
Like all medicines, this product can cause side effects, although not everybody gets them.
Possible side effects include slight tingling sensation and / or some mild tenderness at the treated area. This is usually temporary, and in rare cases may appear as a temporary blemish on the skin.
If you mistakenly allow the gel to spread onto and remain in contact with areas of normal skin, it may cause irritation.
If you experience these or any other side effects while using this product seek advice from your doctor or pharmacist.
Do not use Salatac Gel:
- if you are allergic (hypersensitive) to salicylic acid, lactic acid or any of the other ingredients of Salatac Gel
- anywhere on or near your face, armpits, breasts, bottom or genital (sex) area
- on birthmarks, moles, warts with hairs growing from them, or any other spots
- if you are diabetic or suffer from poor blood circulation to your hands or feet
If symptoms persist or get worse seek advice from your doctor or pharmacist.
Please read the patient information leaflet before use.
