Description of Aldara Cream
Aldara Cream is generally used in the treatment of actinic keratosis. Actinic Keratosis is a condition which surfaces due to uncontrolled exposure to the sun. The face and/or the scalp are heavily affected due to this medical condition. You can also buy Aldara Cream to treat superficial basal cell carcinoma, which is a form of skin cancer. Certain genital warts can also be cured using this cream. To use this cream, the person must be at least 12 years of age. The generic name of Aldara Cream is imiquimod topical.
