Verrica Pharmaceuticals has entered into an agreement with Walgreens to distribute Ycanth through its specialty pharmacy. Walgreens joins Verrica’s existing specialty pharmacy, Nufactor, who continues to be instrumental in helping the company build awareness of Ycanth therapy among high volume dermatology and pediatric medical practices. 

“We are excited to enter into this agreement with Walgreens to help bring the first FDA-approved therapy for the treatment of molluscum contagiosum, Ycanth, to the millions of adults and children who contract this viral skin disease each year,” said Ted White, president and CEO of Verrica Pharmaceuticals.
