Common Dosages
- Topical solution: Usually concentrated as 25% podophyllum resin in a suitable solvent.
Typical Dosing
- The recommended dosing is to apply a thin layer of Podocon-25 directly to the affected area, typically once weekly. The specific frequency and duration of treatment may vary based on the healthcare provider’s instructions.
