pharmachologic effect
Immunomodulatory drug for external use. Imiquimod, the active ingredient of the drug Keravort, is a compound that modifies the immune response. Imiquimod does not have a direct antiviral effect; its action is due to the induction of interferon alpha (IFN?) and other cytokines.

Mode of application

Do not apply a bandage to the area where the cream is applied. After the specified time, the cream should be washed off with warm water and soap. Treatment should be continued until visible genital or perianal warts disappear, but not more than 16 weeks. The cream is packaged in disposable sachets containing the required amount of cream for application to the affected skin area of 20 cm2.
