  • Title: Acyclovir in the treatment of infection due to herpes viruses.
    Author: Zicha J, Stafová J, Vacek V.
    Journal: Czech Med; 1986; 9(4):203-5. PubMed ID: 3028734.
    Abstract:
    Intravenous infusions of acyclovir were administered to 15 patients suffering from herpes simplex or varicella-zoster infections. The therapeutic effect of the drug consisted in rapid cessation of progression of the disease and in considerable shortening of duration of clinical symptoms. There were no adverse reaction in our groups of patients. There were no relapses after the treatment with acyclovir had been stopped. From what has been stated above, we take acyclovir for a highly efficient and safe drug for therapy of HSV and VZV infections.
