I have been prescribed Efudex for multiple actinic keritosis to be used twice daily for three weeks. However I was not given directions as to how to treat my skin otherwise. I.e. should I use moisturizer, make-up, etc and I have not found this info in other WEB sites about the treatment. Also I am scheduled for removal of a basal cell carcinoma near my nose but not until April. What effect will the Efudex have on that area?
