How Condylox Affects Patients

Podofilox, also called podophyllotoxin, is a stronger form of the compound podophyllin. It is used to remove external genital warts.

How Condylox works in the body

The exact way this drug works is not fully understood, but it appears to inhibit an enzyme called topoisomerase II. This enzyme helps with DNA replication, but the drug stops it from doing its job. This stops DNA from unwinding and copying itself, which prevents cancerous cells from spreading.

Condylox for External Genital Warts

This treatment was easy to use and, more importantly, it actually worked! I was a little nervous at first that it wasn't going to work but by the seventh day everything had cleared up. I'm very satisfied with this product even though it is a bit costly.

Condylox for External Genital Warts

I just completed the first week of this treatment. I experienced no pain and no change. I will continue to use it in hopes that it takes a little bit more time to work. The doctor wasn't very helpful and didn't seem confident in the prescription, so I may get a second opinion from another doctor.

Condylox for External Genital Warts

This treatment worked extremely well for me. I had a total of 16 warts, some around the base of my penis and some on the shaft. I used the solution (not the gel), and after 3 weeks, all warts were gone and the skin healed. I applied the solution then used a blow dryer to dry it quicker; there was a good amount of burning at times but it was worth it to get rid of those warts. If any come back, I will definitely use this solution again.

Condylox for External Genital Warts

I had a big wart on the glans of my penis. It took four rounds of treatment, but it was completely dissolved. I was able to withstand the pain because it was well worth it.

Condylox for External Genital Warts

I was warts-free in just two days after using this treatment! A little uncomfortable to put on and it burned a little, but well worth it for the results.

Condylox for External Genital Warts

I was diagnosed with HPV a week ago and started using this treatment two days ago. It's been working great so far, but it is very painful to apply and use. I sometimes have trouble sleeping because of the pain and it's hard to walk around. However, my warts are slowly disappearing.

Condylox for External Genital Warts

I was diagnosed with HPV and began treatment last week. The gel is difficult to apply only to the warts, and it ended up on my healthy skin a couple of times. It burns like crazy and is really painful. I'm not sure if I'm crying from the pain or because of the virus. Anyway, the treated area has become very white, and I'm now on my fourth day of rest. The warts seem to have shrunk a bit, but I'll keep you updated.

Condylox for External Genital Warts

I was diagnosed with HPV and treated with this medication. It was very effective, most of the warts were gone after the first treatment. The only downside is that it burns my penis and leaves behind white, dead skin.

Condylox for External Genital Warts

After using as directed for three months with little results, I saw some success after accidentally applying it more liberally one week. Two weeks later and they're about 60% gone. These warts are very stubborn, but prevention is key.

Condylox for External Genital Warts

I'm on my second round of this treatment and I haven't seen much progress. It does burn, though. People have said that their warts fell off within three to four days, but that hasn't been the case for me yet. Hopefully they'll be gone before my vacation in a month.
