Aldara
Aldara (imiquimod) Cream, 5% classifies itself
as an "immune response modifier." According to their data, Aldara
claims to have treated nearly 4 million Americans with genital warts.
Aldara
is a safe alternative to the invasive treatment of this disease prescribed
by doctors. Applied by the patient, it is available by prescription only.
Although one of the most expensive treatments (one month costs about
$250) , it is one of the more effective prescription products. Once
only availabe by visiting the doctor, it can be now be purchased
with an "online" doctor's consultation at http://www.genital-wart-treatments-online.com/aldara.html
Blood
Root
The makers of Bloodroot paste
claim to have stumbled upon the root's powers to reduce the size of common
warts accidentally after staff members took supplements intended to be
used to treat cancer that contained the bloodroot ingredient. Shortly
after this realization, they created a paste of bloodroot concentrate
to treat a wide variety of skin disorders, including warts and moles.
Apparently bloodroot's powers to treat skin disorders was a slight oversight
originally encountered through the readings of Dr. Jonathan Hartwell's
work, however, it did not seem worthwhile to for them to pursue at the
time.
The manufacturers also warn not to expect immediate results
from their product. Whether or not waiting 30 days will show results due
to either the application of bloodroot or the natural lifecycle of the
virus to come and go is entirely the user's discretion.
Candida
Antigen
According to their research, the makers
of Candida conducted a study including 116 patients. Sandra Marchese-Johnson,
M.D. conducted the open-label comparison. With some receiving treatments
including cryotherapy and other immunotherapy options. According to their
evidence, partial and sometimes complete disappearance of the warts occurred.
The amount of product applied to each respective induration varied upon
the actual size of the wart. The larger the wart, the higher volume of
product applied. It is somewhat unclear as to how many patients actually
received Candida in this study, however, the manufacturer mentions that
seven out of ten patients had complete or partial response. After the
study, a follow-up ranging from four to eighteen months concluded that
there had been only one recurrence of the wart according to Dr. Johnson.
PODOPHYLLIN is a brown liquid that causes a burning sensation
as it dries. Caution must be taken as it needs to be washed off within
4 to 6 hours of application. Intended to be used for the treatment of
external genital warts, it is both easy to use and rather inexpensive.
In addition, special preparations must often be made prior to the application
of this product at home. Although expensive
(one 3.5 mL tube costs costs around $200), it is an effective
prescription genital wart treatment product. Once
only availabe by visiting the doctor, it can be now be purchased
with an "online" consultation at http://www.genital-wart-treatments-online.com/condylox.html
The CyrogoneTM System is a solution for embarrassing trips
to the doctor's office for treatment of genital warts. CyrogoneTM incorporates
the cryogenic process of freezing warts for the purpose of removal. Guaranteed
to remove your warts, this product is available for $19.95 plus shipping
and applicable sales tax.
CryogoneTM consists of three primary components: a container
with the cryogen inside, a specially designed applicator, and an adhesive
material for application to the area of interest. The CyrogoneTM System
involves applying an absorbent pad first to the skin followed by a spraying
of the cryogen. Due to its low boiling point of 15 degrees Fahrenheit,
the material freezes at the point of contact and destroys the skin in
comes into contact with within a few millimeters of depth. The larger
the wart, the longer the treatment time is suggested.
Removed from market for extreme safety and health
risks - no longer available.
Cryotherapy is a method that entails freezing off the wart
with liquid nitrogen and is relatively inexpensive, safe and effective.
The downside this to this procedure beyond the obvious pain factor is it
must be performed by a trained health care provider.
DUOFILM
15ML Wart treatment
The DUOFILM procedure involves soaking the wart area
in warm water for approximately five minutes prior to application. Then
gently rubbing the surface of the wart with a pumice stone or emery board.
Using a brush, apply DUOFILM to the wart. Take caution not to get any
of the product on the surrounding skin keep covered with a bandage.
Helps support immune system function and the body's natural
defenses. This natural product is derived from the flowers and the root
of the echinacea plant, or purple coneflower, which is native to North
America. It is traditionally used during the winter months and has been
shown in numerous clinical studies to help support immune system function
and the body's natural defenses. (The FDA has not evaluated this statement).
Herbs are complex plants made up of many natural active ingredients which
work together in the body to produce a beneficial effect. The most important
part of choosing an herbal supplement is insuring that the natural active
ingredients in the herb are present in the final product each and every
time.
Electrotherapy involves cauterization, a process that destroys
tissue by using chemical corrosion or electricity, or by heating or freezing
it. Electrocautery is done using a small probe, which has an electric
current running through it, to cauterize the tissue. It is frequently
used to stop bleeding.
Electrocautery is a relatively safe procedure and is routinely used in
surgery to burn unwanted or harmful tissue. It is also effectively used
to reduce or stop hemorrhaging by "burning" the bleeding blood
vessels (seals them off). Various types, shapes, and sizes of tips (probes)
are available for specific treatments. A small electrode is applied to
the skin near the surgery site. This is used to collect the electricity
from the body and safely discharge it back to the machine.
Herbal
WartGo
The application process of Herbal WartGo entails applying
the product topically to a bandage and applying to the desired area of
treatment. Manufacturer claims this product to be irritation free of the
surrounding tissue are of the wart.
Occasionally, INTERFERON injections are
used if all other methods of treatment have failed. The antiviral drug
interferon is sometimes used, but less expensive therapies work just as
well with less discomfort.
Recent studies suggest that laser beams applied to warts
are an effective treatment that does not affect normal tissue or cause
scarring. Some physicians recommend it particularly for HPV infections
of the cervix (warts and other lesions). Local or general anesthesia may
be necessary, depending on the number and size of the warts. Only physicians
specially trained to do laser therapy should perform this treatment. Laser
therapy (using an intense light to destroy the warts) or surgery (cutting
off the warts) has the advantage of getting rid of warts in a single office
visit. However, treatment can be expensive and the health care provider
must be well-trained in these methods.
Nature's
Solution
Made from natural fish oils, Nature's Solution claims
to use natural ingredients that are effective antiviral agents helpful
in fighting off HPV. Application is quite simple involving a direct placement
of the product to the wart.
Sal-Acid
Plaster
With soft pads of comfort the infected area and protect the
applied product, Sal-Acid Plaster may be used as a safe alternative to other
harmful treatments.
Silver
Nitrate Pencil
Silver Nitrate is used as an alternative to surgery or
cryotherapy and works by destroying the wart. It is apparently less hazardous
than toxic chemicals such as nitric or chi oro acetic acid, salicylic
acid, podophyllin or 5-fluorouracil. In addition, its requiers only a
few applications for expected results. It is water-soluble and easy to
apply to the infected area. Downside: Can leave dark greay marks
underneath skin.
Transfactor
Transfactor comes in a capsulated form and is mixed with
lactose. Manufacturer claims that user should see results within four
to six weeks, and it has been successful in three quarters of its customers.
In addition, it claims to be side-effect free.
TRICHLOROACETIC
ACID (TCA) is the most common chemical applied to small warts. TCA is
a clear, watery liquid that is painted on the warts. It causes a burning
sensation as it dries. The warts will turn a whitish color, shrink and
disappear. It will take weekly treatments for a number of weeks to get
rid of the warts. Trichloracetic acid (TCA) is currently used by
only a small percentage of practitioners but appears to be better than
podophyllin in several respects. It is usually equally effective. The
strength of TCA is more easily controlled; it works on first contact with
the skin and then stops in about five minutes, reducing the danger of
scarring. It does not seem to provoke severe reactions as podophyllin
occasionally does. Some doctors use TCA during pregnancy, although no
studies have been done to verify its safety at that time.
Condysil
Creme
Some methods of removing genital
warts like burning or freezing leave scars and can be extremely painful.
Why burn your most sensitive areas if you don't have to? Applied
twice daily, the company claims a satisfaction rate for this ointment
of over 90%, with no burning or additional SCARRING. SkinChoice
spent nearly two years developing this product while consulting with Dermatologists,
Pharmacists, and Universities. Among other ingredients, the Aloe,
Vitamins E and A Palimate, colloidal silver and tea tree oil have been
shown in clinical studies to be highly effective against bacteria and other
micro organisms while stimulating the body's own immune system, while the
Prunella Vulgaris has been shown to be an effective anti-viral agent.

Wart
Cream by Waldon Research
Waldon Research has developed its wart cream by combining
anti-viral agents infused with oxygen, and, according to the manufacturer,
the product can kill the viruses that cause these diseases. Oxygen is
an aggressive biological tool in fighting anaerobic microorganisms such
as viruses that contain positive charges. We could not find any scientific
data to back up this theory.
Between 30-50% of people who have used prescription medications
like Aldara or Condylox or have undergone cryogenic therapy will have
their warts grow back again! They are usually harder to remove the second
time. Why burn your most sensitive areas if you don't have to? Applied
twice daily company claims people using this product have over a 90% satisfaction
rate, with no burning or additional scarring. Very unique fomula. Among
other ingredients Salicyic Acid, Vitamins A and E are suspended in a soothing
natural glycerine base
5% Salicylic Acid & Prunella
