GlyCylic®: A Comprehensive Approach to Wart Removal
Warts caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV) can be unsightly and painful. And while there are many over-the-counter wart removal products, few of them deliver the results that patients are seeking, leading to unfortunate and frustrating incidences of recurrence.
The Tetra corporation is pleased to offer GlyCylic®, a unique and effective solution that circumvents many of the drawbacks that more traditional OTC products might face. Read on to learn more about how GlyCylic works, why it’s different from other treatments, and what patients should know about it to ensure effective use.
The Science Behind GlyCylic®
GlyCylic® is formulated with a combination of 5 powerful ingredients:
- Glycolic Acid: This alpha-hydroxy acid gently exfoliates the outer layers of the wart, allowing for deeper penetration of the other ingredients.
- Salicylic Acid: A beta-hydroxy acid that helps to soften and peel away the wart tissue.
- Glycerin: A humectant that moisturizes the skin and aids in the peeling process.
- Ethyl Pyruvate: A natural compound with anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory properties.
- Povidone-iodine: A broad-spectrum antimicrobial that helps prevent infection and reduce inflammation.
Patients must also learn to recognize warts if they’re going to treat them effectively. Common warts are raised, rough-textured bumps often found on the hands, fingers, elbows, and knees, whereas plantar warts might be compressed, occurring on the soles of the feet. Flat warts are small and smooth and often appear in large numbers on the face, arms, and legs; periungual and subungual warts, on the other hand, are those that form around or under the nails.
Preventing Wart Transmission
Warts are highly contagious and can spread through direct or indirect contact. To help patients reduce the risk of transmission or reinfection, instruct them to:
- Avoid sharing personal items like towels, razors, or nail clippers.
- Practice good hygiene, such as washing your hands regularly.
- Avoid picking, scratching, or biting your nails.
When to Seek Medical Attention
While many warts can be treated at home, those affected should consult a doctor if:
- The wart is painful or changes in appearance.
- The wart spreads or recurs despite treatment.
- You are unsure if the growth is a wart.
- The wart interferes with normal activities.
GlyCylic® offers a comprehensive approach to wart removal, combining effective ingredients and addressing the underlying causes of wart formation, not just the symptoms.
