My doctor said the aldara creme would not make me sick, that others he has prescribed it for had no problems. But after coming down with severe flu like symptoms 3 times in 3 weeks I don't believe this was just a coincidence. I was supposed to apply the creme 5 times a week & skip 2 days & do this for 6 weeks. After starting & stopping I am now applying it twice a week. The vomiting & diarrhea & aching have stopped & the only problem now is severe redness & some skin peeling & some scabbing. The surgery was done to the upper left cheek & one thing I questioned was maybe the creme was applied to soon before the incision was healed enough. I still have to apply the creme for several more weeks because I cut down from 5 times a week to 2 times a week.
Good Luck,
Les
