elaine hollingsworth put aldara on her
nose thinking that it was the "benign
salve" that her dermatologist made it out
to be; instead, it was the beginning of
her nightmare. After using the
pharmaceutical skin cancer treatment for
only two weeks, a "disgusting, thick,
crusty, black scab" covered her entire
nose, not just the one-quarter-inch on
which she applied the cream -- and this
wasn't even the worst side effect.
Around the same time her nose became
covered with the scab, hollingsworth awoke
early one morning with a case of
anaphylactic shock. "my throat was so
swollen that it felt as if two tennis
balls were lodged in it; my ears were
throbbing; my nose was dreadfully swollen;
and I could barely breathe or swallow,"
she writes in "aldara: the skin cancer
'cure' that can kill," an article that
appears in the may 2006 issue of the
townsend letter. Hollingsworth could have
died from the severe allergic reaction.
She was lucky that she had someone to
drive her to the hospital.
But even that nearly fatal experience was
not the end of her aldara troubles.
"i was extremely ill for two weeks
afterwards," she writes, "and for months,
the skin all over my body burned as if i'd
been in a fire, and my back was covered in
bleeding, itching sores. I've learned
since that my other symptoms -- memory
loss, diminished eyesight, low-level
headaches, dizziness, and extreme,
unexplained weight loss -- are common to
many aldara victims."
hollingsworth is right; these side effects
are common, some would say too common,
among aldara users. As much as 3m
pharmaceuticals likes to tout "slight
flu-like symptoms" as its drug's only side
effect, many consumers have come forward
to hollingsworth and other vocal aldara
users, expressing similar horrific
experiences in emails to her. "i have
been diagnosed with an autoimmune disease
called graves basedow disease. My doctor
said it's 99-percent certain that my
diseases are due to that cream, aldara," a
25-year-old turkish woman wrote to
hollingsworth.
How can a doctor be 99 percent certain
that aldara is to blame? The problem
stems from aldara's active ingredient,
imiquimod (iq). 3m reports that its cream
helps cure skin cancer by stimulating the
immune system's response, thereby helping
it to fight cancerous cells.
Unfortunately, iq disrupts cytokine
activity in the process and also attacks
the body's mucus membrane tissue.
Cytokines are a major component of the
immune system's communication centers.
When this communication system becomes
disrupted by something such as iq, it can
result in autoimmune diseases such as
psoriasis, diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis
and celiac disease, as well as
inflammation in general.
In addition to this cytokine dysfunction,
clinical research shows that aldara
attacks and destroys the delicate mucus
membranes that line and protect the brain,
eyes, nose, mouth, lips, throat,
intestinal lining, vagina and rectum.
When these membranes cannot effectively
produce mucus, damage occurs in the
tissues they are supposed to protect.
Richard beasley experienced this damage
firsthand. In 2000, he began taking
aldara, believing that it would cure a
cancerous lesion on his forehead. Instead
of curing his cancer, beasley believes
aldara caused him a number of health
problems, all of which the texan espouses
on his website. He writes:
"the cytokine activity, plus the imiquimod
molecules that reached my blood
circulation, damaged the lining and villi
inside my stomach and small intestine, and
damaged my colon. Because of this, I
developed irritable bowel syndrome and
celiac disease, with resultant loss of
nutrient absorption. This created
frightening weight loss, which all my
doctors told me was caused by the gross
cytokine activity all over my body. I
developed nerve damage, my tear ducts and
sinus membranes were destroyed, I have
lost 35 percent of my hearing and, worst
of all, I ended up with parkinson's
disease, and my brain has been seriously
damaged."
after aldara victim received settlement
from 3m, the company tried to silence his
opinions
in 2002, beasley sued 3m pharmaceuticals
in federal court on the grounds that
aldara was causing these health problems.
Only weeks before the trial, 3m privately
settled with beasley and he thought he was
done with 3m -- until the aldara1.Com web
site caught 3m's attention. The company
felt he was disclosing documents that were
given to him as part of the court case,
but were to remain private after the
settlement. So in 2004, 3m took beasley
to court. "we were under the impression
(beasley) was in the process of trying to
violate the protective order," said 3m
spokeswoman jacqueline berry. The judge
ruled in beasley's favor, denying 3m's
motion that he was violating the order.
In addition to 3m, beasley's website
attracted a lot of attention from
consumers who experienced similar side
effects. He has played a tremendous role
in raising public alarm about aldara, the
drug that its makers, the fda and many
dermatologists consider a "benign" skin
cancer treatment that offers a favorable
alternative to surgery. Luckily, some
dermatologists recognize the risk posed by
aldara, especially when it is applied to
an open lesion, which then allows the drug
to easily access the bloodstream. "in my
opinion, based on my observations and
research, aldara should be classified as
criminally dangerous material if used on
any open or potentially open skin area,"
says prominent cancer specialist Dr.
Michael tait.
If your dermatologist prescribes aldara to
you, learn more about the drug before you
fill your prescription. Hollingsworth and
beasley, among many other consumers, are
still experiencing horrible health
problems that they believe stem from their
aldara treatment. For more information on
aldara, including important scientific
documents, see beasley's website,
aldara1.Com. He has compiled a wealth of
scientific information. You can also
visit hollingsworth's website,
doctorsaredangerous.Com and read
testimonials of people who have also used
aldara and experienced negative effects.
If you have been treated with aldara and
experienced health problems that you
believe were caused by aldara,
hollingsworth invites you to send your
