Podowart Paint, containing Podophyllum Resin, is a specialized topical medication designed to treat warts caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV). Its active ingredient, podophyllotoxin, works by inhibiting the growth of wart-causing viruses, offering an effective solution for external wart removal.
Uses
Podowart Paint is primarily used for:
- Treatment of external warts caused by HPV
- Targeted application on specific wart-affected areas
Benefits
- Effectively treats HPV-induced warts
- Provides a non-invasive treatment option
- Allows for precise application on affected areas
- Helps prevent the spread of warts
- Can lead to complete removal of warts with proper use
How It Works
Podowart’s active ingredient, podophyllotoxin, interferes with the growth and replication of the HPV virus. By preventing viral proliferation, it stops wart growth and eventually leads to the wart’s removal.
Dosage
Apply a thin layer of Podowart Paint directly to the wart, avoiding contact with healthy skin. Follow package instructions or your healthcare provider’s advice for application frequency and duration. Typically, the solution should be washed off after the recommended time.
Side Effects
Common side effects may include mild skin irritation or burning sensation at the application site. Severe burns or allergic reactions, while rare, require immediate medical attention.
Warning
- Apply only to warts; avoid contact with healthy skin
- Do not use on open wounds or mucous membranes

Interaction

Important Information
Clean and dry the affected area before application. If accidental application to healthy skin occurs, rinse thoroughly with cool water and apply a moisturizer or aloe vera gel. For severe burns or reactions, seek immediate medical attention. Use Podowart Paint only as directed and consult your healthcare provider for any questions or concerns. Regular follow-ups may be necessary to monitor treatment progress and adjust as needed.
