Some MEDICINES MAY INTERACT with Aldara . Because little, if any, of Aldara is absorbed into the blood, the risk of it interacting with another medicine is low.
Ask your health care provider if Aldara may interact with other medicines that you take. Check with your health care provider before you start, stop, or change the dose of any medicine.
