Clinical and immunological effects of thymostimulin therapy in patients with recurrent herpes labialis
Peter GergelyMed Sci Monit 1996; 2(1): CR24-27 :: ID: 499515
Abstract
Eighteen patients suffering from recurrent herpes simplex virus (HSV) infection were treated with thymostimulin (TP-1, SERONO). Therapy was effective in reducing the frequency and/or severity of recurrences of herpes labialis, but ineffective in simultaneous herpes genitalis. No side effects were observed. A return to normal of elevated natural killer (NK) activity, a slight decrease of CD4+/CD8+ cell ratio and an increase in mitogen-induced lymphocyte blastogenesis were observed after 6 weeks of therapy.
