Research Notes on Cantharidin
Cantharidin is a chemical substance extracted from blister beetles used in treating warts. In a painless procedure, the physician "paints" the substance over the wart and covers it with clear tape. It works by causing blistering, and when it dries, the wart comes off with the skin. Some tingling and tenderness may be experienced during the course of the treatment.
