Who has used Efudex (5-FU) topical cream for Actenic Keratosis and Basal Cell carcinomas? How far into the treatment did you notice any itching? Right away? First day? After 2 days? A week? Just want to know what to expect, as I've heard the itching is intense.

Thanks, Kailuagirl

The treatment varies from person to person. Normally the side effects begins within days. After a two week treatment or however long you are to use it, then 6 weeks from the start you are to be checked to see if it got all the AK. Good luck!
