Phytomedx is a 5% solution of milkweed cream sold online. @ $22 for a very small 4 ml ointment tube.
They are recommending it for use in eradicating genital warts, ringworm and actinic keratosis

I only assume petty spurge and milkweed have similar Glycoalkaloids.

I have been using the cream for about 2 weeks. I am just rubbing it on the AK's daily and on the larger BCC's I apply the cream, wait about 5 minutes dab a little beeswax and cover with 3m micropore tape (flesh color) Definitely more effective than Sunspot ES or Curaderm.

I equate it's efficacy to bloodroot paste at about 10%. Being as I am a guinea pig here I don't suggest anybody go rush out and buy this cream yet.

I have been in contact with the owner of the company Greg Harlow and I will be documenting and taking pictures. I am, at 2 weeks into this treatment, cautiously hopeful.

They might not be the same:

Cautions: Milkweed (E. Peplus) should not be confused with either Milkweed (Asclepius) or Milkweed (Sonchus Oleraceus); Euphorbia Peplus should not be confused with Euphorbia Peplis (Purple Spurge).

Below is a link to a fun audio interview / story of how Professor Jim Aylward decided to experiment with Milkweed. But more important be sure to read the very current positive comments below the the audio player. I am EXTREMELY hopeful... I feel like we are finally on a one size fits all solution to our skin cancer cure quest.

Anivoc, any feedback on the Phytomedix????

Have tried everything (sunspot es, peroxide, oil of oregeno, apple cider vinegar)....ready to give this stuff a try but wanted to see what your findings are.

Feedbak please

Once again, I have to note the two plants called "milkweed." The AMERICAN common "milkweed" is the one used in Phytomedx, according to the website given above. The AUSTRALIAN and NEW ZEALAND "milkweed" is Petty Spurge (Euphorbia Peplus). This is NOT contained in Phytomedx above. The claims for the two plants differ, although there may be elements in their "milky" sap that are the same. Just know which is which!!

Anivoc!!! Hi!!!

How is the Phytomedix treatment going??? Where are the bcc's you are using it on?
Thank you so much for the info and the update.

Thanks, Anivoc. This cream sounds interesting. Something not as drastic as bloodroot but still effective may be a good answer. I'll be very interested to see your follow-up material.
