Abstract
Methods for treating molluscum contagiosum warts include identifying a human with one or more molluscum contagiosum warts and applying an anti-infective composition to the one or more warts. The anti-infective composition comprises at least one anti-infective agent in a liquid carrier, such as an organohalide. The liquid carrier includes a tissue penetrating component for rapid penetration of the anti-infective agent into the one or more molluscum contagiosum warts. Application of the anti-infective composition to molluscum contagiosum warts causes the warts to turn black and/or fall off the skin in less than about 5 days.
