THWART

For topical application. Prior to application soak wart in warm water for five minutes. Remove loose tissue with a brush, emery board, pumice or abrasive sponge, being careful to avoid causing pin-point bleeding or abrading the surrounding healthy skin.

Dry thoroughly with a towel not used by others to avoid contagion. Carefully apply Thwart twice to the wart using the brush applicator allowing the first application to dry before applying the second. Thereafter repeat treatment once daily or as directed by physician.

Do not apply to surrounding healthy skin. Clinically visible improvement should occur in one to two weeks but maximum effect may be expected after four to six weeks. There are no differences in dosage for children, adults or the elderly.

Thwart is flammable and should be kept away from flame or fire. Keep the bottle tightly capped when not in use. Do not allow the solution to drip from the brush onto the bottle neck thread, otherwise subsequent opening of the bottle may be difficult.

Undesirable effects are listed by MedDRA System Organ Classes.

Assessment of undesirable effects is based on the following frequency groupings:

Very common: ≥1/10 Common: ≥1/100 to <1/10 Uncommon: ≥1/1,000 to <1/100 Rare: ≥1/10,000 to <1/1,000 Very rare: <1/10,000 Not known: cannot be estimated from the available data System Organ Class Undesirable Effect Frequency Skin and subcutaneous tissue disorders skin irritation* Not known Injury, poisoning and procedural complications salicylism (including tinnitus) Not known * A localised irritant reaction may occur if Thwart is applied to normal skin surrounding the wart.

This may normally be controlled by temporarily discontinuing the use of Thwart and by being careful to apply the solution only to the wart itself when treatment is resumed. Reporting of suspected adverse reactions Reporting suspected adverse reactions after authorisation of the medicinal product is important.

Thwart is for external use only. Do not permit contact with eyes or mucous membranes. If contact occurs flush with water for 15 minutes. Do not allow contact with normal skin around wart. Avoid using on areas of broken or damaged skin.

Discontinue treatment if excessive irritation occurs. Excessive prolonged use of topical salicylic acid may result in symptoms of salicylism and must therefore be avoided.

Hypersensitivity to salicylic acid or to any of the excipients. Thwart should not be used by diabetics or patients with impaired blood circulation. Do not use if the wart or surrounding skin is inflamed or broken. Do not use on moles, birthmarks, unusual warts with hair growth, on facial warts, or in the anal or perineal region.
