Drug Details
Fluorouracil, available as a topical cream or solution, is used to treat pre-cancerous and cancerous skin conditions. It belongs to a group of medications called antimetabolites and is applied directly to the skin. This medication effectively treats actinic keratosis, a condition caused by prolonged UV exposure, and the 5% strength is also approved for basal cell carcinoma, a type of skin cancer. Fluorouracil works by interfering with the abnormal cells' ability to replicate their genetic material, thereby preventing their growth. Treatment typically involves applying the medication twice daily for a duration of 2 to 6 weeks, depending on the condition being treated. Common side effects can include burning, crusting, and irritation of the skin. Always consult your healthcare provider for personalized medical advice before using this medication.
