How should I use Seba-Clear Topical?
Use Seba-Clear Topical shampoo as directed by your doctor. Check the label on the medicine for exact dosing instructions.
- To use shampoo as a scalp treatment: Use before bathing. Do not wet hair. Apply Seba-Clear Topical shampoo with the applicator directly to affected areas of the scalp. Leave on for 5 minutes, gradually increasing the treatment time up to 1 hour, or as directed by your doctor. After treatment, rinse thoroughly with water. Wash your hands after each use. You may use a non-medicated shampoo after using Seba-Clear Topical shampoo, if desired.
- To use shampoo as a medicated shampoo: Wet hair, apply Seba-Clear Topical shampoo with the applicator directly to scalp, and massage vigorously for several minutes. Rinse thoroughly. Be sure to wash your hands after each use. Use Seba-Clear Topical shampoo daily until the condition clears, or as directed by your doctor.
- To use the gel on the skin: Moisten the affected area and keep damp for at least 5 minutes before you apply Seba-Clear Topical shampoo. Apply Seba-Clear Topical shampoo to the affected area as directed. Cover the treated area at night unless your doctor tells you otherwise. If applying to an area that cannot be covered, check with your doctor for instructions. Wash Seba-Clear Topical shampoo off in the morning.
- To use gel as a scalp treatment: Apply Seba-Clear Topical shampoo with the applicator directly to affected areas of the scalp. Avoid contact with unaffected hair or skin. Leave the medicine on for 10 to 20 minutes initially, gradually increasing the treatment time to one hour, or as directed by your doctor. The gel may be washed off using the medicated shampoo or warm water in a bath or shower.
- Wash hands immediately after you use Seba-Clear Topical shampoo, unless your hands are part of the treated area.

Uses of Seba-Clear Topical in details
This medication is used on the skin to treat common skin and foot (plantar) warts. Seba-Clear Topical helps cause the wart to gradually peel off. This medication is also used to help remove corns and calluses. This product should not be used on the face or on moles, birthmarks, warts with hair growing from them, or genital/anal warts.
Seba-Clear Topical is a keratolytic. It belongs to the same class of drugs as aspirin (salicylates). It works by increasing the amount of moisture in the skin and dissolving the substance that causes the skin cells to stick together. This makes it easier to shed the skin cells. Warts are caused by a virus. Seba-Clear Topical does not affect the virus.
How to use Seba-Clear Topical topical
Follow all directions on the product package. If you are uncertain about any of the information, consult your doctor or pharmacist.
This medication is for use on the skin only. To avoid irritation, do not let this medication come into contact with your eyes, nose, mouth, groin, or any broken skin. If you do get the medication in those areas, flush the area with cool water for 15 minutes. Wash hands after use.
First, soak the corn, callus, or wart in warm water for about 5 minutes to soften the treatment area. Dry thoroughly. Your doctor may direct you to use a pumice stone, callus file, or emery board to carefully remove the top dead layers of skin after soaking and before applying the medication. This dead skin removal is only to help the medication work better. Do not try to rub the wart or callus off.
If you are using a liquid/gel, apply a few drops or a thin coat of the medication to cover the entire wart, callus, or corn using the applicator if provided. Be careful to apply it only to the affected area and not the surrounding skin. Let dry for 5 minutes. Depending on the brand used, you may need to apply the medication twice with each treatment. Check your product package and follow the directions carefully. You may cover the area loosely with a bandage. Repeat this procedure 1 to 2 times daily for up to 2 weeks for corns and calluses and 12 weeks for warts or as directed by your doctor.
If you are using a medicated pad or bandage, you may need to cut the pad so that it covers the treatment area completely but does not touch the surrounding skin. Peel off the protective covering and place the patch/bandage over the area. Leave in place according to package directions. Remove and place a new patch/bandage as directed (usually every 8 to 48 hours depending on brand). Repeat this procedure for up to 2 weeks for corns and calluses and 12 weeks for warts.
Dosage is based on your medical condition, product type/brand, and response to treatment. Do not use large amounts, apply this medication more often, or use it for a longer period than directed. Your condition will not clear faster, but the chance for side effects may be increased.
Use this medication regularly to get the most benefit from it. To help you remember, use it at the same time each day.
If your condition persists or worsens, or if you think you may have a serious medical problem, seek immediate medical attention.

DESCRIPTION
Seba-Clear Topical is a topical preparation containing 27.5% Seba-Clear Topical in a proprietary film-forming vehicle that comprises isopropyl alcohol, butyl acetate, polyvinyl butyral, isopropyl metacresol, trimethyl pentanyl diisobutyrate, phenic acid and acrylates copolymer. The pharmacologic activity of Seba-Clear Topical is generally attributed to the keratolytic activity of Seba-Clear Topical which is incorporated into a polyacrylic, film-forming virucidal vehicle designed to cover the wart without the need for a bandage. The structural formula of Seba-Clear Topical is:
CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
Although the exact mode of action for Seba-Clear Topical in the treatment of warts is unknown, its activity appears to be associated with its keratolytic action, which results in mechanical removal of epidermal cells infected with wart viruses.
The virucidal complex incorporated into Seba-Clear Topical’s proprietary vehicle is designed to help reduce risk of reinfection at the wart site, as well as prevent viral contamination of the product under normal usage.
INDICATIONS AND USAGE
Seba-Clear Topical is indicated for the topical treatment and removal of common warts and plantar warts.
CONTRAINDICATIONS
Patients with diabetes or impaired blood circulation should not use Seba-Clear Topical. Seba-Clear Topical also should not be used on moles, birthmarks, and unusual warts with hair growing from them, or warts on the face.
PRECAUTIONS
Seba-Clear Topical is for external use only. Do not permit Seba-Clear Topical to contact eyes or mucous membranes. If contact with eyes or mucous membranes occurs, immediately flush with water for 15 minutes. Seba-Clear Topical should not be allowed to contact normal skin surrounding wart, since localized irritation may occur. Treatment should be discontinued if excessive irritation occurs. Seba-Clear Topical is flammable. Keep away from fire or flame. Keep bottle tightly capped when not in use.
ADVERSE REACTIONS
A localized irritant reaction may occur if Seba-Clear Topical is applied to the normal skin surrounding the wart. Any irritation may normally be controlled by temporarily discontinuing use and by applying the medication only to the wart site when treatment is resumed.
DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION
Prior to applying Seba-Clear Topical, soak wart in warm water for five minutes. Remove any loosened tissue by gently rubbing with a brush, wash cloth, or emery board. Dry wart site thoroughly. Using the brush applicator supplied, apply Seba-Clear Topical twice to entire wart surface, allowing the first application to dry before applying the second. Continue treatment once or twice a day as directed by physician. Be careful not to apply to surrounding skin.
Clinically visible improvement will normally occur during the first or second week of therapy. Maximum resolution may be expected after four to six weeks of Seba-Clear Topical use.

Seba-Clear Topical interactions
Allergies
Tell your doctor if you have ever had any unusual or allergic reaction to Seba-Clear Topical or any other medicines. Also tell your health care professional if you have any other types of allergies, such as to foods, dyes, preservatives, or animals. For non-prescription products, read the label or package ingredients carefully.
Pediatric
Young children may be at increased risk of unwanted effects because of increased absorption of Seba-Clear Topical through the skin. Also, young children may be more likely to get skin irritation from Seba-Clear Topical. Seba-Clear Topical should not be applied to large areas of the body, used for long periods of time, or used under occlusive dressing (air-tight covering, such as kitchen plastic wrap) in infants and children. Seba-Clear Topical should not be used in children younger than 2 years of age.
Geriatric
Elderly people are more likely to have age-related blood vessel disease. This may increase the chance of problems during treatment with Seba-Clear Topical.
Breast Feeding
There are no adequate studies in women for determining infant risk when using this medication during breastfeeding. Weigh the potential benefits against the potential risks before taking this medication while breastfeeding.
