There is no medicine that can eliminate a plantar wart because it is a viral infection. Viruses are usually left to run their course. Similar to a cold, you do not treat the virus directly; rather, you treat the symptoms.
Some people believe that taking oral cimetidine, often known as Tagamet, a heartburn drug, can help them get rid of warts. Although there is some progress in children, it is not widely used as a primary treatment. Instead, it is only utilized if there is a widespread wart infection while other treatments are being used as well.
