A common pathology is currently papillomavirus infection. The causative agent of the disease mainly affects the mucous membranes of the throat, oral cavity, nose, genitals. The medicine for papillomas is selected after passing the examination, during which it is possible to determine the type of virus. Modern treatment methods can get rid of only the external symptoms of the manifestation of the disease.
Causes of papillomas
Experts say that the majority of the population is infected with the papilloma virus, but it does not always manifest itself. Some people do not even suspect infection and are only carriers. The appearance of characteristic formations on the skin indicates the presence in the body of diseases of inflammatory etiology in an advanced stage. Papillomas can also occur amid severe stress.
Infection occurs not only through sexual contact (unprotected). Although this method is more common than others. You can become infected with the virus by contact with the skin of the wearer, with a kiss. The virus enters the body through wounds and scratches on the skin.
Symptoms
Papillomas resemble moles on a short leg. They look unaesthetic, especially in open areas of the body. Neoplasms appear most often in the genital area, both in women and in the stronger sex. Papillomas can have various forms: flat, spiky, filiform, in the form of a mosaic. The color of the growth is slightly different from the skin and may be lighter or, conversely, a darker shade. Depending on the external manifestation of the disease, the specialist selects the optimal cure for papilloma.
A person infected with a virus is usually only concerned about the appearance of characteristic moles or warts. However, it was found that internal organs are also under attack. In the process of medical diagnosis, formations on the mucous membrane of the stomach, bladder, cervix are revealed.
How is papilloma treated?
What drugs are suitable for getting rid of growths on the skin caused by HPV can only be determined by the attending physician (dermatologist, gynecologist or andrologist). It is extremely undesirable to get rid of papillomas on your own. Modern medicine offers several ways to treat a pathological condition. Drug exposure is the basis of therapy. The medicine for papillomas acts on the problem from the inside, blocking the multiplication of the infection and improving the protective functions of the body.
Papillomas are removed from the mucous membrane of the epithelium and skin using methods such as cryodestruction, electrocoagulation, laser and surgical removal. One of the modern methods of getting rid of an unpleasant cosmetic defect is the use of a radio knife, which cuts off not only the neoplasm itself, but also the epithelium.
Effective drugs for papillomavirus infection
It should be borne in mind that there are no medicines that can destroy the papilloma virus in the body. A correctly selected medicine for papillomas can improve the state of the immune system and suppress the reproduction of the virus. Without the appointment of a doctor, such medications are not recommended.
To combat viral infection in dermatology and gynecology, the following drugs are most often recommended:
- Immunomax.
- "Isoprinosine."
- Cycloferon.
- Interferon
- "Panavir".
- Viferon.
- Ferezol.
- "Verrucacid."
Some drugs for the human papilloma virus are quite complex and can provoke the development of side effects. After passing the examination, the doctor determines the individual dosage regimen.
Immunomax from papillomas
Description of Isoprinosine
One of the most effective drugs (according to many doctors) for eliminating human papillomavirus infection is Isoprinosine. The drug belongs to the antiviral group and is able to directly affect the pathogen, preventing it from developing.
The drug for the correction of pathological conditions of the immune system is available in the form of tablets. The active substance is inosine pranobex (500 mg). Tablets have both antiviral and immunostimulating effects. Isoprinosine effectively inhibits the development of HPV (the production of the enzyme dihydropteroate synthetase is blocked), and due to the stimulation of the protective function of the body, viral particles and infected cells are completely destroyed.
Treatment of papillomas with Isoprinosin
The treatment regimen and dosage are calculated depending on the type of virus. With conventional papillomas, medication is quite enough. If condylomas are observed on the skin, in addition to tablets, surgical intervention is indicated.
The medicine for papillomas is taken for at least 14 days. The course of treatment can be extended up to 28 days on the recommendation of a specialist. Dosage depends on the age of the patient. Children over 12 years old and adults need to take two tablets of Isoprinosine three times a day. In pediatric practice, tablets are prescribed for children from 3 years of age, calculating the dose of the active substance depending on the weight of the child. For 10 kg of body weight, 500 mg of inosine pranobex is shown. That is, if a child weighs 15 kg, he needs to take 750 mg per day. The result is divided into three doses (250 mg at a time).
With surgical removal of papillomas and genital warts, it is also necessary to carry out antiviral therapy to prevent relapse of the disease. Before using the medication, it is necessary to familiarize yourself with the contraindications.
Natural preparation "Panavir"
Another medicine for papillomas is Panavir, which is based on substances of natural origin. The tool has a wide spectrum of action and is used as a powerful immunomodulator and antiviral drug. “Panavir” is produced in the form of rectal and vaginal suppositories, gel and spray for external application, solution for injection.
The active ingredient "Panavira" is an extract from potato tops. It has been established that the substance has a strong immunomodulating property and promotes the production of interferon in the body. For the treatment of papillomas, it is often prescribed in the form of a gel, which is applied twice a day. In the form of rectal and vaginal suppositories, the drug, according to experts, is also effective. Candles help get rid of papillomas in the anus and vagina.
Treatment with papillomas should be started at an early stage, without waiting for the moment when they begin to increase in size. According to patient reviews, the gel is well tolerated, does not cause allergic reactions. In most cases, it helps to get rid of warts and various types of papillomas. With a slight spread of growths, it is enough to use only a means for external application. In more advanced cases, complex therapy is indicated.
In the form of spray and gel "Panavir" is used in pediatric practice. This medicine against papillomas on a natural basis can be used to treat pregnant women.
"Ferezol" with papillomas
To combat cosmetic defects on the skin caused by the presence of the papilloma virus in the body, you can use the drug "Ferezol." The tool is specially designed to remove growths on the skin. The solution is effective for warts, papillomas and condylomas. However, it should also be used as directed by a specialist. The effectiveness of the drug is based on a cauterizing and mummifying effect.
How to use?
According to the instructions, a liquid medicine for papillomas is applied directly to the affected area and try to avoid getting the solution on healthy skin. Previously, you can steam the dermis with a neoplasm and allow the moisture to dry completely. Such manipulation will allow the drug to penetrate into the deeper layers of the neoplasm. You can apply the medicine with a small stick.
If the papilloma is small, then a single use of the Ferezol solution may be sufficient for removal. With large areas of the lesion, it is necessary to apply the drug several times with an interval of 15-20 minutes. In some parts of the body, such as armpits, it is dangerous to use the product because of the high risk of burns.
What do the doctor's say?
Experts strongly recommend that patients do not self-medicate genital warts and papillomas. Only a doctor can determine the appropriate therapy after the patient has been examined. The optimal medicine for papillomas and warts for each patient is selected individually. Some patients may need only a medical effect on the disease, while others can not do without surgical removal of growths. The duration of treatment also depends on the individual characteristics of the body and the state of the immune system.
