| Response from Dr. Frascino
 Hello, There are different types of herpes viruses (herpes simplex, varicella zoster, EBV, CMV, HHV6-8, etc.). There are also various types of resistance (resistant to usual doses of acyclovir, etc.). The antivirals with activity against herpes viruses include acyclovir, famciclovir, valacyclovir, ganciclovir, foscarnet and Cidofovir. I suggest you discuss your specific case with your doctor. Good luck. Dr. Bob | ||||||||
