Shennongcao corn and callus removal patches use salicylic acid to soften thickened skin. This pack contains 10 medicated plasters; the corresponding label is NDC 51367-001-10.
Active ingredient and purpose
The linked label lists salicylic acid 156 mg for removal of corns and calluses. This is a medicated treatment, rather than a simple cushioning pad.
How to apply
Wash and thoroughly dry the affected area. Place the medicated plaster over the corn or callus, remove after 24 hours, and repeat every 24 hours as needed according to the package. Protect surrounding healthy skin and stop if irritation develops.
Who should avoid it
Do not use if you have diabetes or poor circulation, or on red, infected or irritated skin. Use externally only. Persistent discomfort or a rash needs advice from a doctor or podiatrist. Keep away from children and heat.
Are these corn-removal patches the same as cushioning pads?
No. This pack contains 10 medicated salicylic acid plasters for corns and calluses. Follow the supplied label and do not use if you have diabetes or poor circulation.
