Veregen for External Genital Warts

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.

Veregen for External Genital Warts

Three times a day for about two to three weeks did the trick for me. No irritation experienced whatsoever.

Veregen for External Genital Warts

This is an effective treatment. I'm curious about how often it can be used, however. The 16 week limit seems a bit short.
