What is Aldara Cream? 

Aldara Cream (Imiquimod) is a prescription medication that helps with the treatment of actinic keratosis (rough, scaly patch on the skin), superficial basal cell carcinoma (skin cancer) and genital warts.  

It belongs to a class of drug called topical skin products, which works by penetrating into the skin and binding to immune cells to trigger them to release cytokines. Cytokines are small proteins that regulate the body’s natural defense to disease and infection.  

Aldara Cream Precautions 

Before using Aldara Cream, contact a healthcare professional if you are allergic to the ingredients of this medication, or have any other allergies. Inform your healthcare provider further if you or a member of your family has suffered or is suffering from the following medical conditions: 

  • Autoimmune Diseases 
  • Rheumatoid Arthritis
  • Scleroderma
  • Lupus
  • Immune System Problems (HIV)
  • Skin Problems (Sunburn)
  • Chronic Graft-Versus-Host Disease
  • Recent Surgery on the Infected Skin Area
  • Recent Bone Marrow or Cord Blood Transplant  

Aldara Cream may lead to increased sensitivity to the sun. Limit your time under the sun and avoid direct sunlight to not worsen this risk. Always use sunscreen and wear protective clothing when going outside to protect your skin.  

This medication does not destroy viruses, making it useful in removing genital or anal warts, but not helpful in preventing new warts from forming due to the fact that this condition is caused by a virus called human papillomavirus (HPV). There is also a risk of infecting a sexual partner when they come in contact with the area infected with HPV. Use reliable barrier protections during sexual activity to prevent spreading the virus.  

This medication must only be administered at extreme necessity during pregnancy. Consulting your doctor or pharmacist is advised to discuss the risks and benefits of using this medication while pregnant.
