Product Information

Do not use an OTC acne product again if you have developed a serious allergic reaction from it. Side Effects of Sal-Acid Plaster

Bazuka Extra Strength Gel presents 26% salicylic acid in an evaporative collodion-like gel application which dries to form a cohesive and adhesive film on the skin.Furthermore, even when the film appears to dry completely, a proportion of the salicylic acid remains in solution within the vehicle, thus permitting continued release of the keratolytic, which may otherwise be entrapped within the dried collodion-like film. The gel yields a robust flexible film which is firmly anchored to the skin, and can therefore be used, even on the sole of the foot, without the added protection of a plaster. At the end of treatment, if the elastic film is difficult to remove, it may be allowed to remain on the skin until it sheds.

This helps to loosen dry scaly skin making it easier to remove. When salicylic acid is used in combination with other medicines it takes off the upper layer of skin allowing the additional medicines to penetrate more effectively.
