Aldara or condylox
Common Questions and Answers about Aldara or condylox
aldara
You can put some cream/gel on there called Aldara or something like that which is supposed to be pretty thorough. There is also this condylox gel and perhaps more ways as well but that's the major ones. After you receive treatment, you can ask for an application of podophyllin which is used to disrupt unseen hpv in topical skin cells which is where the virus resides.
You must remember, or know, that treating your genital warts won't mean they are gone forever.
ve been having outbreaks aldara seem to be no help except for the external warts they seem to work a little with aldara
why is that could it be that my immune system is weak or is it the numerous treatments that I have been using like TCA, ALDARA, PODOFILOX,SOLOTION and now I am using CONDYLOX 0.5% GEL will these warts ever cease.when will the virus clear I am tired of experiencing warts every month and tired of treating them when they continue to reappear any suggestions.
My doctor prescribed condylox, but they are to small to keep the gel on the affected area only all five are barely visible bye eye) . I have talked to several docs some use cryo but I have not found any that use laser. None even brought up imiquimod which I learned about online and feel that it might be best in my situation. It seems they prescribe whatever they are familiar with. Also a transmission question.
t develop the warts until august 2008 and I am still having outbreaks while I have been using treatments such as TCA, aldara, podofilox solution and lastly condylox gel I am hoping that this is my last outbreak being treated with condylox and hope that I don't experience another outbreak in 2 weeks because my outbreaks come once a month. I would like to know could the outbreaks be from the fire my father death things of that nature play a part and tends to weaken the immune system.
Many options are available though, from cryotherapy (freezing), electrocautery (burning), TCA (acid), surgical methods (cutting, laser, etc.), and at home creams such as condylox and aldara. Only your doctor will be able to recommend what method is right for you.
I'd see a doctor and find out what these bumps really are once and for all, since it sounds like you've let them go awhile and they haven't been officially diagnosed. Perhaps this is HPV, perhaps it isn't.
You may discuss with your doctor about the Aldara, Salicylic Acid, Apple Cidar Vinegar or Podophyllotoxin (wartec)... Almost all first line theripies cause a burning or dry skin conditions but those are normal... you may use some moisturizer enriched with vitamin C or E to sooth the areas around the wart but don't use these on warts...
It all depends on the treatment selected and your pain tolerance. Treatment tends to be more uncomfortable than truly painful. It's definitely advisable to get them removed though. If you go to a free clinic (such as planned parenthood) chances are they'll use cheaper methods like cryotherapy, aldara or condylox cream. These procedures aren't typically as painful as some surgical options. Have you seen a doctor yet to officially diagnose your genital warts?
several times and tried many treatments such as two boxes (24 sachets) of (Aldara 5% Cream) using it on MWF with no improvments. I also tried Locacid Solution and sometimes electirc burning, drinking Zinc,etc.. and there was no improvments as well..
An advice would be highly appreciated!

next, about 3 months ago i started getting very small warts on the shaft of my penis and i went and saw a Urologist and he burned them off for me and i was good, he was unsure 100% if indeed they were HPV warts or if they were another form...How ever i had sex this morning and about 2 hrs later i noticed about 3 of these little warts again.... I am not sure if they are from the sex today because if so it was a very fast reaction.. or they were there and i haven't noticed...
Hello,
For small warts several medications(like podophyllum resin, Podofilox (Condylox), Trichloroacetic and bichloroacetic acids, Imiquimod 5% cream and interferons) are available, which can be applied directly to the surface of the warts.Other treatment options include electrical cautery, surgical removal, Carbon dioxide laser treatment and electrodesiccation.
My question is it possible that this was all caused by condylox / bacterial infection? Or could it have been herpes that I spread from the sore to the anus?
I didn't experience lymph node swelling, fever or any other symptoms. I am just confused by this all. After 4 days of the antiobiotics, cream, and desitin, i don't have pain and the blisters from the condylox are almost gone. Anyone shed any light?
The good thing is that the genital warts are gone for now.
You can speed up the treatment by freezing them off with liquid nitrogen (at the doctors office, with full healing in about two weeks), or he might use a blister bug extract to blister them off (youll heal up in about 2 weeks), or he might prescribe Aldara cream or Condylox cream to apply to them (4 to 16 weeks to get rid of them this way).
He will get recurrances of the warts until his body mounts a sufficient immune response, over several months, to prevent future warts from appearing.
Yes you will but the virus can be controlled by using medications such as aldara cream, condylox gel, podifilox when warts are present those medications can be prescribed by your doctor.
So you just drink apple cider Vinager? How do i get what you got the meds? And is this something to be ashamed for? I have been faithful to my boyfriend i have never cheated and when i go to the dr they tell me i'm fine i dont have hpv or herpies or anything they say that i'm clean. But looking at all the pictures i'm pretty sure thats what i have they are little white bumps and they dont bother me besides the fact of knowin they are there.
I have had all visible warts frozen off 8-9 times this past year and they keep coming back. I have completed 2 courses of therapy on Aldara and that just seemed to make the warts grow faster. I have used salicylic acid, 4 weeks of duct tape occulsion therapy and have started regularly taking echinacea to boost my immune system. The duct tape therapy seemed to slow/stop growth but did not get rid of existing lesions.
t work (Condylox, podophyllin, bi- or trichloroacetic acid, Aldara), the direct destructive methods (cautery, freezing, surgery) always are effective for the short term. Some warts recur, however, despite treatment. And yes, it is the patient's immune system that eventually clears warts and the underlying HPV infection.
A final point is that some people with apparent persistent or recurrent warts in fact have other skin bumps, e.g. due to scar tissue, and not actual wart recurrence.
Please tell me if you think I have herpes or if it’s related to the Aldara. I’ve read that one can get herpes-like symptoms from Aldara. Is it normal to experience this a week after I’ve stopped using it? Is it normal for it to last this long? Is it possible? I’m very petrified, too petrified to go back to my gyno. Please help.
Hi I am a 30 year old male who was diagnosed with genital warts 3 years ago. The warts never resembled what I have seen in the internet and I have got various opinions some have said they are warts some have said they are not! I have had many cryo treatments on these lumps and even self treated with over the counter stuff.
I used condylox, aldara, had them burnt off, and frozen. I got some skin that looked suspect biopsied about 3 months ago by the dermotologist and it came back negative for hpv. However, there is an area of skin about a half inch away from that he didn't test that looked like it could be a wart. From looking at it, he thought that it was just a scar from all the treatment I've used in that area and didn't seem to think a biopsy on it was necessary.
At the very beginning of December I noticed one or two skin tag looking things, my GP said it could be GW and gave me aldara but said to go to a gyno to confirm. One week after using aldara the bumps disappeared, and I went to my GP a few more times the next few weeks and she too said everything looked clear. It took until late January to get into the gyno, she also assured me there was nothing there.
Has anyone ever used condylox and know if 1) it actually works, (I've heard good things) and 2) how much does it cost/will insurance cover the prescription??
Thanks for you help!
