Wart Remover

Wart remover is an over-the-counter (OTC) topical solution designed to treat and remove common warts and plantar warts caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV). These non-prescription treatments are widely available and contain active ingredients like salicylic acid or freezing agents, which break down the wart tissue and cause it to peel away from the skin. For home use, consumers should follow the instructions on the packaging, ensuring they treat only the wart and avoid surrounding healthy skin. Patients typically experience a gradual removal of the wart with consistent use, although persistence and patience are key, as even the most effective wart removers may require several applications or weeks of treatment for optimal results.
