Get emergency medical help if you have signs of an allergic reaction: hives; difficult breathing; swelling of your face, lips, tongue, or throat. Tolak may cause serious side effects. Stop using Tolak and call your doctor at once if you have: severe pain or swelling of treated skin; severe itching, burning, or irritation; new or worsening skin sores; fever, chills; or severe stomach pain, bloody diarrhea, vomiting. Before your skin begins to heal it will become red, dry, tender, and crusty. This is a normal skin reaction, even if these symptoms get worse for a short time. Gradually, the dead skin will begin to shed off and you'll see raw skin appear. Ask your doctor when to stop using the medicine after you notice signs of healing. Common side effects of Tolak may include: skin pain, itching, burning, or irritation; skin darkening or scarring; skin redness and swelling; or small blood vessels under the skin.
