Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Identify the effects of combined intralesional furosemide 20mg/2ml and digoxin 0.5mg/2ml in cutaneous warts given weekly are rather safe and effective treatment for cutaneous warts, focusing on their effectiveness and safety, at a tertiary care hospital in Karachi, Pakistan.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Cutaneous warts are benign growth caused by human papilloma virus. Virus have more than 100 types of which few are responsible for cutaneous disease. Both injection furosemide and digoxin cause decrease intracellular potassium levels by interacting with cell membrane ion co-transporters (Na+/K+-ATPase and Na+-K+-2Cl-co-transporter-1) thereby causing delay in viral replication. The purpose of study is to evaluate the effects of both furosemide and digoxin given 0.2 ml once weekly for five weeks on viral warts.
