actinic keratosis
"The chemist (pharmacist) suggested the generic brand for Efudix which for me is APOC - 5FU (fluorouracil 5% w/w cream).  I have been applying the cream twice a day for the last week & my face looks unsightly as the cream has brought out all the pre cancerous AK - my face is very red & a little sore, but not unbearably so. It is also itchy - I have three weeks to go for the treatment, so hopefully this treatment will negate me having to go to the next step of biopsy then removal by surgery if it does then I will consider it a great success. Best wishes to all other AK sufferers"
