PRESCRIPTION COMPOUNDING FOR GENITAL WARTS

Genital warts are one of the most common types of sexually transmitted diseases.  As the name suggests, genital warts affect the moist tissues of the genital area. They may look like small, flesh-colored bumps or have a cauliflower-like appearance. In women, genital warts can grow on the vulva, the walls of the vagina, the area between the external genitals and the anus, and the cervix.

The pharmacists at Bayview Pharmacy have the ability to compound several topical medications that may help eradicate your genital warts.  These topicals would be easy to use, and custom made to meet your individual needs.  They might contain a combination of the following medications:

Green Tea Extract

Imiquimod

Podofilox
