Bazuka Sub-Zero. Freezing Device for Removal of Warts and Verrucas, 50ml

Product Information

Bazuka gels can be used by adults, the elderly and children over 2 years. Children under 12 years should be treated by an adult, and treatment of infants less than 2 years is not recommended. In practice, very young children are unlikely to suffer from verrucas, corns or calluses until they are old enough to walk.

Here’s how you can treat verrucas and warts with Bazuka Gels. The UK’s number one verruca and wart treatment range. Reporting suspected adverse reactions after authorisation of the medicinal product is important. It allows continued monitoring of the benefit/risk balance of the medicinal product. Healthcare professionals are asked to report any suspected adverse reactions via the Yellow Card Scheme at: www.mhra.gov.uk/yellowcard. Soak the affected area in warm water for 2 to 3 minutes. Dry the area thoroughly, using your own towel to avoid spreading infection. Bazuka Sub-Zero may be preferable for more stubborn warts and verrucas, and when a really rapid treatment is desirable. It's suitable for adults and the elderly, and for children down to the age of four. Because the sudden freezing process can be painful, Bazuka Sub-Zero is not recommended for children younger than four.Chances are you probably know all there is to know about Superdrug, but if you don’t then here’s a little more detail about them.

If the wart/verruca has not disappeared after about 12 weeks of treatment, further advice should be sought from a doctor or pharmacist. Bazuka Sub-Zero can be used whenever the removal of a wart or verruca is required, excluding warts near the face, armpits, breasts, bottom or genital (sex) area.

They form a water-resistant protective barrier, so there’s no fuss and no need for plasters. Bazuka Gel and Bazuka Treatment Gel are clinically proven.

About Superdrug Some mild, transient irritation may be expected, but in cases of more severe or persistent pain/irritation, the treatment should be suspended and/or discontinued. See also section “Undesirable Effects”.

Removal can take a couple of weeks or more, but that’s faster than most acid treatments. There’s none of the stinging discomfort you get with a freeze treatment, so it’s much more suitable for children. The main downside is that the stuff comes out of the tube fast when you first open it, so be careful not to get it on healthy skin. Key specs – Size: 50ml; Application type: Precision gas applicator; Active ingredient: Dimethyl ether; Suitable for: Age 12+ There is limited evidence. As with most medicines, no studies have been conducted on use during pregnancy and lactation. Bazuka Sub-Zero should not be used more than 3 times on individual warts or verrucas, and each freezing application should be at least two weeks apart. How to choose the best verruca treatment for you What are verrucas, and how are they different from warts?Dry using your own towel to avoid spreading infection. After drying, gently file with an emery board or pumice stone. Keep and use away from ignition sources (flame, cigarettes etc), temperatures above 50°C and direct sunlight, and do not pierce or burn container even when empty.

If you spill the freezing agent on your clothes, fabrics, jewellery or metal and polished surfaces it may damage them permanently. Some buyers report finding the new Cryo Freeze pen less powerful than the older Wartner product, but it’s still faster and less labour-intensive than acid treatments.Children under 12 should be treated under adult supervision and treatment of infants less than 2 years is not recommended. However, despite the precision applicator, it’s all a bit fiddly to use. You have to keep the applicator in a vertical position, push and twist to release the gas, and then keep it in place for a full 40 seconds. Not easy when treating the underside of your own foot! But this may be just the thing to finally kill that stubborn wart on your hand. Warnings & side effects: after treatment, the skin in the treated area becomes white and then reddish. The freezing action will cause a temporary, slight burning and painful sensation which will gradually subside. The treated area will remain sensitive and a slight itchiness will be experienced. This is normal. This Cryo Freeze pen is the new easy-to-use version of Wartner’s cryotherapy verruca treatment, which previously combined a foam applicator and fiddly sponges. The active ingredient is now carbon dioxide (CO2), which is a bit less uncomfortable (and less flammable) than the old dimethyl ether, making the new pen more suitable for kids. The new pen also makes the treatment much easier to apply precisely, without touching the healthy skin around the verruca. Then immediately apply directly to the verruca or wart with a constant, light pressure. Please refer to the patient information leaflet to find out how long you should apply Bazuka Sub-Zero, as this varies depending on the size and situation of your verruca or wart.
