Interferons are a type of drug that is produced through naturally occurring protein which is known to have antiviral and anti-tumor tendencies.  They may be administered topically or intra lesionally.

It has been noted that the recurrence rate using interferons is about twenty to forty percent, but the recurrence rate after one is treated is a little low than with other forms of treatment.  And intra lesional interferon is very costly on the budget and could require a several office visits.

In cases when a patient is discharged and required to take medication after treatment, the following are common prescribed genital wart medicines.

Podofilox is a medicine for the patient’s use at his home.  A solution consisting of 0.5% solution is applied twice daily for three days up for about four weeks.  The cure rate for this medicine is actually higher than with podophyllin.  But for the warts that occur over and over, podofilox is definitely not recommended as the only treatment.

There have been some incidents of inflammation from using podofilox.  This generally occur during occlusive dressings, exposure for prolonged periods in the sun or UV radiation.  It is also advisable that care be increased when it is used near the eye area, nose or mouth and that hands be washed immediately afterwards.  Potential side effects from this treatment include burning, inflammation, and allergic contact dermatitis.  In addition, it is possible to experience other vaginal diseases with this treatment.
