The silver nitrate is effective, but each stick has an extremely small amount on it, and the amount is not consistent from stick to stick. This makes the price quite high versus buying a bottle, but the sticks make it convenient to use. Some sticks are very dark and some are very lightly colored, presumably indicating a wide variation in the amount applied. Once applied to a skin tag, within hours it starts to die and peel off (and stings a lot). On a larger mole, it takes several days until it becomes dry and starts to scrape off, and may need additional applications. The residual silver nitrate takes a long time to fade away, days to weeks and can last much longer if too much is used. Overall these are good if you only need to apply them to a few spots.

These silver nitrate sticks worked perfectly. Even though they did not come with instructions I knew how to use them on my husband’s granulation tissue around his stoma. They all were intact and they arrived quickly.
