Veregen Reviews: What are patients saying about Veregen?
4.7Patient Review
12/10/2013 Veregen was a huge help to me, way more than Aldara cream ever did. I read a lot of comments about how it gets worse before it gets better, and that makes total sense! Veregen also clears away the underlying warts you never saw hidden under your skin. So yes, that's why in the beginning it always gets worse. But if you can hold on and be patient, it will eventually calm down and you'll have smooth skin again.
4.7Patient Review
1/7/2014 Three times a day for about two to three weeks did the trick for me. No irritation experienced whatsoever.
4Patient Review
11/14/2014 This is an effective treatment. I'm curious about how often it can be used, however. The 16 week limit seems a bit short.
