Not yet: We do not yet have an antiviral medication to neutralize HPV viruses or to block their replication. Thus, the best one can do is get periodic check-ups and follow-up with any important findings. Of course, people should be vaccinated with Gardasil-9 or any other HPV vaccine with 9 or more serotypes of protection. Also, have very few partners, and preferably vaccinated partners.
