Bayview Pharmacy is pleased to present a specialized formulation of Podophyllum 20%/Salicylic Acid 6% in Flexible Collodion, designed for the treatment of various types of warts including Verruca Vulgaris, Plantar Warts, Common Warts, Genital Warts, and Periungual Warts. This unique formulation combines two active ingredients, Podophyllum and Salicylic Acid, to provide a potent and effective treatment for these prevalent skin conditions.

This formulation is user-friendly and can be directly applied to the affected area. It is crucial to adhere to the instructions provided by your healthcare provider when utilizing this product. Please be aware that this product should not be used on broken skin or on areas of the body that are not affected by warts.

How Does it Work

A small arrow pointing down

Podophyllum 20%/Salicylic Acid 6% In Flexible Collodion is a potent topical formulation designed to treat a variety of warts including Verruca Vulgaris, Plantar Warts, Common Warts, Genital Warts, and Periungual Warts. This unique combination of active ingredients works synergistically to eliminate warts by causing them to blister and peel off. The Podophyllum component acts as a cytotoxic agent, effectively destroying the wart tissue, while the Salicylic Acid component aids in softening the wart, facilitating its removal.

To achieve the best results from this medication, it is crucial to follow the correct application procedure. Begin by thoroughly washing and drying the affected area. Then, using a cotton swab or applicator, apply the medication directly to the wart. This process should be repeated once daily for a period of up to 12 weeks. It is important to avoid contact with healthy skin as the medication can cause irritation.

While this medication is highly effective for many types of warts, it may not work for all. If you notice no improvement or if the warts persist after the treatment period, it is essential to consult with your healthcare provider. They may suggest alternative treatments or further investigations to determine the cause of the persistent warts.

It has been found effective in managing conditions such as molluscum contagiosum, seborrheic keratoses, and actinic keratoses. The active ingredients, Podophyllum and Salicylic Acid, work together to target and treat these skin conditions effectively.
