DUOFILM SOLUTION is a combination of Lactic Acid and Salicylic Acid which
belongs to the group of medicines called Alpha-hydroxy acids and Keratolytics
respectively. It is used to manage skin defects such as warts, verrucae, corns
and calluses. Warts and verrucae are a type of small unnecessary growths of the
skin occurring on fingers, back of hands or soles and are caused by a virus and
can spread to other people. Corns and calluses are hard, thick pads of skin
caused by pressure and friction that occur on the feet and hands.
Lactic acid and salicylic acid in cases of corns and calluses work by softening
the hardened skin growth so that it can be easily removed by using a pumice
stone or emery board. It also helps manage warts and verrucae by reducing the
infection and its spread to other parts of the body by killing the virus that
causes them.
