Abstract:
The authors review the literature and report the mechanisms of action, chemical properties, pharmacokinetics, adverse effects, and clinical studies of recombinant alpha-interferon. The authors believe that clinical trials should be performed with recombinant alpha-interferon therapy on verruca plantaris to prove or disprove the effectiveness of interferon as a potential treatment modality for these commonly encountered lesions.
