Possible Aldara Cream Side Effects
Aldara doesn't destroy healthy skin. Most people who use it don't complain of pain. One of the most common Aldara side effects is redness. This may be a sign that your immune system is working. Other common Aldara side effects are peeling of the skin, itching, flaking, and swelling around the warts.
Important Additional Information:
Because Aldara Cream doesn't cure Human Papilloma Virus, the cause of genital and perianal warts, new warts may form during treatment.
Important
Apply your Aldara Cream prescription as prescribed.
