How do I know if Carac® is right for me?


The active ingredient in Carac® is called fluorouracil (floor-oh-your-a-sill). For more than 40 years, fluorouracil has been used to safely and effectively treat AKs. It works by getting into the precancerous AK cells and destroying them. Carac® contains fluorouracil in a novel drug-delivery system, and provides convenient once-a-day dosing. Ask your doctor if Carac® is right for you.
