Efudix

I have been using Efudix once a day for 7 weeks and after use a yellow paste which i believe is called 'slough' appears over the top. Should i remove it and reapply or leave it?

  1. Welcome to the community, ! Have you messaged your doctor to see what you should do? I wish I could help, but I have no experience with Efudix. I hope you get some input from others in the community. There are plenty of people here who are far too familiar with it, unfortunately. While you wait jfor responses, here is an article with some tips about using Efudix that might help: https://skincancer.net/life-with-skin-cancer/how-use-efudex. I hope are near the end of your treatment and that it's successful. Warm wishes. - Lori (Team Member)
