Adults: Take 10-20 mL per week, as directed by a healthcare provider.

To make a cream: Use 5 mL in 45 grams of vitamin E cream for topical application.

Do not take the undiluted 60% ethanol preparation directly from the bottle.

The finished topical preparation should be properly mixed, labelled and used only as directed.

Do not apply the undiluted liquid extract directly to the skin.

Do not apply it to the eyes, mouth, genital tissue, vaginal area, broken skin, inflamed skin or a large body area.

Consult your doctor or pharmacist before use if you take prescription medicines, particularly anticonvulsants or medicines affecting the nervous system.

Do not change or discontinue seizure medication or another prescribed treatment without medical advice.

Do not use Thuja as a substitute for proper diagnosis of a wart.

Warts are caused by certain types of human papillomavirus, but skin cancers, corns, calluses, seborrhoeic keratoses and other lesions may sometimes look similar.

Seek professional assessment when the diagnosis is uncertain or when a growth is painful, bleeding, changing, spreading rapidly or located on the face or genital area.

Do not apply Thuja to genital warts or inside the vagina.

Genital growths require examination, appropriate sexual-health advice and consideration of other sexually transmitted infections.

Do not cut, burn, pick or shave over a wart.

Do not use topical Thuja as a substitute for proven wart treatments such as salicylic acid, cryotherapy or another treatment recommended by a doctor or pharmacist.

Do not apply Thuja to an uncertain fungal rash.

Ringworm, dermatitis, psoriasis, bacterial infections and other skin conditions may look similar and require different treatment.

A confirmed fungal skin infection generally requires appropriate antifungal treatment and measures to prevent transmission.

Seek medical advice for a rash that is spreading, painful, weeping, affecting the scalp, nails, face or genital area, or not improving with appropriate treatment.

Do not use Thuja as a substitute for antibiotics, inhalers or prescribed respiratory treatment.

Seek prompt medical assessment for shortness of breath, wheezing, chest pain, high or persistent fever, coughing up blood, confusion or rapidly worsening respiratory symptoms.

Do not present “female reproductive support” as treatment for infertility, cervical changes, abnormal Pap or HPV test results, pelvic inflammatory disease or another gynaecological condition.

Abnormal vaginal bleeding, bleeding after intercourse, persistent pelvic pain, unusual discharge or postmenopausal bleeding requires professional assessment.
