Warts are growths on the skin or mucus membranes (such as inside mouth, nose, anus, genitals, lips) that are caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV). There are more than 80 different types of HPV. Many are attracted to the skin where they cause different skin-related warts including plantar warts and common warts. Others are attracted to the mucus membranes where they can cause warts on the genitals or anus. Skin-related warts such as common warts and plantar warts are generally harmless. However, genital warts have been linked to cancer in the cervix. Warts affect 7 to 10% of the general population. They are most common in children and adolescents. Warts are very contagious and may appear more often if the body's defense system is weak. Warts are passed from person to person or from one body location to another on the same person by touch or contact with the flakes of skin. More than 50% of warts disappear within two years with no treatment. However, they are unsightly and can cause pain in the case of plantar warts. Therefore, patients often choose to treat warts rather than wait for them to disappear. Treatments for warts include different topical acid preparations, surgical removal, burning or cryotherapy (freezing). Duct tape has also recently been reported in the news to be effective. Liquid nitrogen is the most commonly applied freezing method, but it is only available through a physician. Compound W Freeze Off® wart removal system is an alternative to liquid nitrogen. It contains dimethyl ether and propane (EIMER) and is as effective and well tolerated as liquid nitrogen. C. What is Compound W Freeze Off® Wart Removal System used for? Compound W Freeze Off® Wart Removal System is used for the removal of common warts as well as the removal of plantar warts on the bottom of the foot. Common warts and plantar warts are harmless growths that consist of a center of inner skin (or connective tissue) with blood vessels covered with layers of outer skin (or epidermis tissue). Common warts are skin-colored, usually appear on the hands and feet and are easily recognized by the rough "cauliflower-like" appearance of the surface. Plantar warts only occur on the bottom of the foot and are often flat due to the pressure caused by walking. Plantar warts grow inward, are often calloused, and can be very painful. The footprint pattern is smooth over the area where the plantar wart occurs because "skin lines" do not grow across the surface of plantar warts. G. How does Compound W Freeze Off® work? 1. Compound W Freeze Off® freezes warts on the spot. The freezing kills both the virus and the infected skin. When the foam applicator is pressed on the wart, freezing begins within a few seconds and the skin will turn white (see diagram and instructions for use). A slight aching, itching and/or stinging feeling will occur as a result of the freezing. After the foam applicator is removed, color will return and the aching, itching, stinging feeling will quickly decrease, disappearing within a few hours. 2. After the area thaws and color returns, a redness that is the same size as the frozen region may appear. As a result of freezing, a blister may form (sometimes filled with blood) under the wart within a few days. You may not see this easily. 3. The frozen skin with the treated wart will fall off after about 10-14 days. In the meantime, new skin will have formed under the blister. U.S. Patent #6,296,410. Additional patent pending. Questions?

Warnings

D:
Do not use if you cannot see clearly to read the information on the container or this Information Leaflet. Use only as directed.
Do not use if you cannot clearly see the wart you are treating. If you mistakenly apply Compound W Freeze Off® directly to skin or use it on conditions that are not warts, it may cause serious burns and permanent scarring of the skin.
Do not use on children under the age of 4 years. It is uncertain how Compound W Freeze Off® may affect the child's skin. Use on a child under 4 may cause permanent scarring of the child's skin.
Do not use if you are diabetic or if you have poor blood circulation. Compound W Freeze Off® wart removal system works by freezing the wart. The frozen area in diabetic patients and those with poor blood circulation may not heal as quickly or completely.
Do not use if you are pregnant or breast-feeding. It is uncertain how Compound W Freeze Off® may affect patients under these conditions.
Do not use on areas with thin skin such as the face, armpits, breasts, bottom, or genitals. Use on these areas may cause burns and permanent scarring.
Do not use on irritated skin, or on any area that is infected, reddened or showing any signs of inflammation, such as itching or swelling. Treating these areas with Compound W Freeze Off® will result in worsening of the condition and possible further infection. These conditions may not be warts and should be examined by a doctor.
Do not use on moles, birthmarks, warts with hair growing from them, genital (on penis or vaginal area) warts, or warts on the face or mucus membranes (such as inside mouth, nose, anus, genitals, lips, ears or near eyes). Use on these areas may cause burns and permanent scarring of the skin or blindness.
Use Compound W Freeze Off® wart removal system only if you are sure the skin condition is a wart.
If you are not sure, consult your doctor. If you treat a skin condition as a wart with Compound W Freeze Off® wart removal system and it is not a wart, you delay proper treatment. This delay may lead to a more serious skin condition or disease.
Avoid Contact with Eyes. Contact with eyes may cause blindness. Do not rub or touch eyes with hands if Compound W Freeze Off® has been applied to them. If product gets into eyes, flush with water for 15 minutes and get medical help right away.
Do not swallow. Contents are toxic and may cause serious internal damage. If swallowed, get medical help or contact a Poison Control Center (1-800-222-1222) right away.
For external use only. Use only as directed. If Compound W Freeze Off® is not used exactly as instructed or you mistakenly apply it directly to the skin or use it on conditions that are not warts, it may cause serious burns and permanent scarring of the skin.
Keep out of reach of children. Children cannot understand the instructions to properly use this product. Contents are hazardous if swallowed, breathed, sprayed on body parts other than warts, or exposed to heat.
E. Cautions:
Use Compound W Freeze Off® only in combination with the special disposable foam applicators provided in this package. Compound W Freeze Off® may not be effective if used in combination with other applicators, foam or otherwise.
Use one foam applicator for one treatment for each wart; use each foam applicator only once. Do not reuse foam applicator or touch the white end of the foam applicator with bare hands to ensure that you do not spread the wart virus infection.
If there is more than one wart on a finger or toe, only treat one wart at a time. If there are warts that are closer than 1 inch apart on other areas of the body, do not treat then at the same time. Freezing watts that are too close together at the same time could lead over freezing of the area and may cause significant discomfort, take longer to heal, or the area may not heal properly. Treat each remaining wart separately, with a two-week period between treatments.
In many cases, only one treatment is needed for each wart. Warts are usually gone in two weeks after treatment with Compound W Freeze Off®. If a wart or part of it is still there two weeks after treatment, you may then safely treat it again. Do not treat each wart with Compound W Freeze Off® more than three times in total. Consult your doctor if three treatments have not led to improvement.
The aching/stinging feeling in treated common warts should disappear within a few hours after application. For plantar warts, the aching/stinging feeling may last 24 hours. If discomfort or aching/stinging feeling continues beyond these times, 3 hours for common warts and 24 hours for plantar warts, talk to your doctor. This may mean that the area has been frozen too deeply and medical attention may be needed.
Do not inhale vapor/spray and use only in well-ventilated areas because it is uncertain how the vapor/spray will affect the lungs. Breathing vapor/spray may be toxic.
Wash hands (except treated area) immediately after use. Washing the treated area immediately may be uncomfortable since you may still be experiencing some aching/stinging. The treated area may be washed after the aching/stinging subsides.
Extremely Flammable. Contents under pressure. Do not pierce or burn aerosol spray can, even after use. Protect from sunlight and do not expose to temperatures above 120°F (50°C). Store at room temperature away from heat. Keep away from fire or flame and from sources of sparks or ignition. Do not smoke while using Compound W Freeze Off®. Piercing the container or exposure to heat may cause the container to explode, causing serious injury. Do not breathe vapor/spray and use only in well-ventilated areas because it is uncertain how the vapor/spray will affect the lungs. Breathing vapor/spray may be toxic.
H. Side effects:
A stinging, itching, aching feeling during and after freezing that quickly decreases after the area thaws.
Possible changes in coloring from white to red.
Possible blistering.
Black dots may appear in the middle of the wart after a few days.
