ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a method for the prevention and treatment of viral-induced tumors, more specifically, human warts. The method uses sandalwood oil and/or derivatives from the sandalwood oil to prepare medicaments for the prevention and treatment of viral-induced tumors (i.e., warts caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV)) in humans. The method of the invention comprises the topical administration of the sandalwood oil or a composition derived therefrom to the human epidermis and/or to the genital tract as needed. The present invention is also concerned with a unique antiviral composition useful for topical application. The antiviral composition according to this invention is also effective against other DNA viruses such as the DNA pox virus that causes Molluscum contagiosum and may be effective against other DNA viruses such as AIDS virus and RNA viruses. The sandalwood oil compositions are also effective against genital warts and HPV of the genital tract and will prevent cancer of the skin and cervix.
