Dr. Li Mingchuan
The main medications commonly used for treating penile genital warts include:
1. Imiquimod cream: This medication has certain antiviral effects. It induces immune cells to produce tumor necrosis factor, thereby activating the immune response mechanism to exert antiviral activity. It is primarily used for treating genital and perianal warts in men.
2. Fluorouracil cream: This drug can be used to treat male genital warts, as well as other conditions involving excessive keratinization, verrucous lesions, and white plaques.
3. Cisplatin injection: A platinum-based agent that inhibits human papillomavirus (HPV) replication by suppressing viral DNA synthesis. In the treatment of male genital warts, this medication can be directly injected into the affected area, gradually leading to wart regression.
