I recently completed a 7-day course of treatment using Fluorouracil / Calcipotriene 5%/.005% cream (which I'll refer to as Efucal for the remainder of this post) and decided to share my experience. I'm posting this mainly because I couldn't find many firsthand accounts from people who had used this
