Brief Answer:
Topical Podophyllotoxin

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Do you have large size warts? If yes you should go for cryotherpy at a Dermatologist place. They can apply liquid nitrogen to easily remove them.

If the warts are small to medium less than 1 mm, then you can try Topical Podophyllotoxin 15% cream or 25% solution, you can apply once a week, leave it for two hours and wash it off, the wart will slowly die and fall off. You can do it for six weeks continously, once a week application. If that does not help you should stop using and see a local doctor.

Hope this helps.
