  • Title: Topical treatment of recurrent herpes simplex with cytosine arabinoside.
    Author: Marks R, Koutts J.
    Journal: Med J Aust; 1975 Apr 12; 01(15):479-80. PubMed ID: 1097864.
    Abstract:
    A double-blind controlled clinical trial of the topical use of cytosine arabinoside in recurrent herpes simplex of the face and genital region showed no significant difference in the efficiency of a placebo as compared with cytosine arabinoside. The high rate of placebo response (70%) found in this trial makes the assessment of any drug treatment for herpes simplex particularly difficult.
