Formula Information

A small arrow pointing down

Podophyllum 25% In Tincture Of Benzoin is a potent topical medication specifically formulated to treat a range of skin conditions such as warts, molluscum contagiosum, and condyloma acuminata.

The podophyllum resin component is an antimitotic agent, which functions by inhibiting cell division, thereby preventing the growth and proliferation of warts and other skin lesions. On the other hand, the benzoin tincture serves as a preservative and also aids in reducing irritation and inflammation associated with these skin conditions.

This medication is dispensed in a liquid formulation in a dropper bottle, designed for precise and controlled administration. This makes it particularly suitable for medications requiring smaller doses or for pediatric patients who may have difficulty swallowing tablets or capsules. It is applied directly to the affected area as per the directions provided by a healthcare provider.

It is crucial to note that this medication should not be used on broken or irritated skin, and should not be applied on the face or genitals. Always follow the instructions of your healthcare provider when using this medication to ensure its effectiveness and to avoid any potential side effects.

If you have any questions or concerns about Podophyllum 25% In Tincture Of Benzoin, please do not hesitate to contact us. Our team is here to assist you in finding the most suitable treatment for your skin condition.

How Does it Work

A small arrow pointing down

Podophyllum 25% In Tincture Of Benzoin is a compounded formulation designed as a topical solution for the treatment of various skin conditions. These include warts, molluscum contagiosum, and actinic keratoses. The active ingredient, Podophyllum, works by inducing cell death in the affected area, thereby reducing the size and number of lesions. The tincture of benzoin serves a dual purpose - it not only protects the skin from irritation but also helps to keep the podophyllum in place.

To use this formulation, start by washing and drying the affected area thoroughly. Then, apply a small amount of the solution directly to the affected area using a cotton swab or applicator. Leave the solution on the skin for up to 10 minutes, then wash it off with warm water. This process can be repeated up to three times a day, for a period of up to four weeks.

It is crucial to remember that this formulation should not be used on broken or irritated skin, and it is not suitable for application on the face or genitals. Avoid contact with the eyes, nose, and mouth. In case the solution comes into contact with these areas, wash it off immediately with warm water.

If you have any questions or concerns about using this formulation, please do not hesitate to reach out.

Enter the formula as a compound

Compounded preparations have no NDC, so this formula will not appear in your EHR's drug search. Use your system's compound, non-formulary, or free-text prescription entry and name the preparation exactly as written in step 3. If your EHR forces you to pick a listed drug, pick the closest entry for the active ingredient and put the full formula in the prescription body (the Sig or directions field), not in Notes to Pharmacy.

Compounded preparations have no NDC and will not appear in your drug search. For EPCS to validate, select a drug entry your EHR recognizes as controlled, usually the bulk powder entry for the active ingredient (for example Ketamine (bulk) powder, not a branded product), then put the full formula from step 3 in the prescription body. A free-text entry that does not validate as controlled will be rejected by your EPCS module.
