KOUZYZCESNTXJO-UHFFFAOYSA-N

Caustic extract from the roots of Podophyllum peltatum and P. emodi. It contains PODOPHYLLOTOXIN and its congeners and is very irritating to mucous membranes and skin. Podophyllin is a violent purgative that may cause CNS damage and teratogenesis. It is used as a paint for warts, skin neoplasms, and senile keratoses.

4 Drug and Medication Information
4.1 Drug Indication

25% podophyllin (in benzoin tincture) is indicated for the removal of soft genital (venereal) warts (condylomata acuminata).


5 Pharmacology and Biochemistry
5.1 Pharmacology

Cell division is arrested and other cellular processes are impaired, gradually resulting in the disruption of cells and destruction of the tissue.


5.2 MeSH Pharmacological Classification

Antineoplastic Agents, Phytogenic

Agents obtained from higher plants that have demonstrable cytostatic or antineoplastic activity. (See all compounds classified as Antineoplastic Agents, Phytogenic.)


Caustics

Strong alkaline chemicals that destroy soft body tissues resulting in a deep, penetrating type of burn, in contrast to corrosives, that result in a more superficial type of damage via chemical means or inflammation. Caustics are usually hydroxides of light metals. SODIUM HYDROXIDE and potassium hydroxide are the most widely used caustic agents in industry. Medically, they have been used externally to remove diseased or dead tissues and destroy warts and small tumors. The accidental ingestion of products (household and industrial) containing caustic ingredients results in thousands of injuries per year. (See all compounds classified as Caustics.)


Keratolytic Agents

Agents that soften, separate, and cause desquamation of the cornified epithelium or horny layer of skin. They are used to expose mycelia of infecting fungi or to treat corns, warts, and certain other skin diseases. (See all compounds classified as Keratolytic Agents.)


5.3 Absorption, Distribution and Excretion

Absorption

Oral absorption: Podophyllum is very well and rapidly absorbed after ingestion. Dermal absorption: systemic poisoning was reported after topical application in some cases. Symptoms were delayed between 2-24 hr.

5.6 Mechanism of Action

Podophyllin is a cytotoxic agent that has been used topically in the treatment of genital warts. It arrests mitosis in metaphase, an effect it shares with other cytotoxic agents such as the vinca alkaloids. The active agent is podophyllotoxin.
