Aldara Question

Hey everyone. I have posted on here before about my HPV. I was given aldara a couple months back and have been using it regularly since then. My question is how do I know when I can quit?
I stopped for about a week when I went on vacation and forgot my packets and on the trip all my redness went away and things started looking better. When I got home and started using again it came right back.  How di I know when I can quit? once the wart is gone... one the packets are all used?
THanks!

Oh you shouldn't be using it on healthy skin, so if the wart is gone, you can stop the aldara.  Give your doctor a call though to double check, or post in the HPV forum.
