01
Overview
Cantharides + camphor is a topical multi-ingredient pharmaceutical preparation historically used in dermatology, in which **cantharides** provides vesicant activity and **camphor** serves as a counterirritant topical component. Based on the provided context, the therapeutically relevant active blistering component is cantharidin derived from blister beetles, which induces acantholysis in epidermal tissue and has been associated with inhibition of protein phosphatase 1 and protein phosphatase 2A. Preparations containing cantharidin have been used topically for molluscum contagiosum and cutaneous warts; however, the exact named query here refers to the specific combination product term cantharides + camphor rather than a modern standardized single-ingredient cantharidin product.
