Title: Mollaret's meningitis and herpes simplex virus type 2 infections. Author: Farazmand P, Woolley PD, Kinghorn GR. Journal: Int J STD AIDS; 2011 Jun; 22(6):306-7. PubMed ID: 21680663.

Antiviral treatment has been used successfully for prophylaxis and treatment.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
