FAQs
What are Avoca products used for?
On this page, Avoca products are sold for topical cauterising use in line with the individual product information, commonly for warts, verrucas and excess tissue. Always read the product page directions and check suitability before use.
What’s the difference between an Avoca caustic pencil and a silver nitrate applicator?
A caustic pencil is a pencil-style applicator for careful, localised use, while the silver nitrate options listed here are single applicators. Which one is appropriate depends on the specific product directions and where you’re applying it.
How do I choose between 40%, 75% and 95% Avoca strengths?
Use the concentration shown on each product page alongside the directions and warnings. If you’re unsure which strength is suitable for you, ask a pharmacist or GP before using a cauterising treatment.
Can Avoca be used on the face, genitals or sensitive areas?
Do not use on sensitive areas unless the product information explicitly states it is suitable and you have been advised by a healthcare professional. For facial lesions or genital warts, seek medical advice rather than self-treating.
Is Avoca suitable if I have diabetes, poor circulation, or a weakened immune system?
You should speak to a pharmacist or GP before use, as self-treating skin lesions can carry higher risk in these situations. A clinician can advise on safer options and when to be assessed in person.
When should I stop self-treating and get medical advice?
Seek advice if you’re unsure it’s a wart/verruca, if there’s pain, bleeding, spreading redness, discharge, fever, or no improvement within the timeframe stated on the product directions.
What should I do before applying an Avoca product?
Read the full product directions first, prepare the area exactly as instructed, and avoid contact with healthy surrounding skin. Stop and seek advice if you experience unexpected irritation.
Safety note: Avoca products listed here are topical cauterising treatments and must be used exactly as directed. They are not suitable for every skin condition, and incorrect use can damage healthy tissue. If you’re unsure what you’re treating, have a long-term condition, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or symptoms persist, speak to a pharmacist or your GP. If symptoms are severe or worsening, contact NHS 111 or urgent care.
