The effect of alcoholic solutions with 20% podophyllin from Podophyllum peltatum and Podophyllum emodi, 8% podophyllotoxin, and 8% colchicine, when applied to penile condylomata acuminata in 227 men, were statistically alike. Of the patients initially judged to be cured after 1-2 applications, 13% showed recurrence, thus bringing down the permanent cure frequency to only 43%. Local side effects were absent after only half the series of colchicine applications, whereas as much as about 3/4 of the treatment course with podophyllin and pure podophyllotoxin could be completed without provoking discomfort.
