  • Title: Combined therapy with acyclovir and adenosine arabinoside in herpes simplex encephalitis.
    Author: Besser R, Krämer G, Rambow A, Hopf HC.
    Journal: Eur Neurol; 1987; 27(4):197-200. PubMed ID: 3678284.
    Abstract:
    We report a case of herpes simplex encephalitis (HSE) with initial coma and severe left-sided hemiparesis in which combined treatment with adenine arabinoside and acyclovir was followed by complete recovery. This favorable result is discussed in view of the literature of HSE treatment including experimental studies on antiviral activity of both drugs. Combined treatment may be useful in severe cases of HSE.
