If your faucet drips continuously, tightening the lock nut may resolve the issue.
If the dripping continues after you've tried tightening the lock nut, remove and clean the cartridge, then re-install and test.
If neither of these solutions resolves the issue, the cartridge may need to be replaced.
*For washerless cartridges, before replacing the cartridge, remove and stretch the springs, then re-install and test.*
