Use of recombinant interferon to prevent recurrent herpesvirus shedding
Current Eye Research
|August 1, 1984
Abstract:
Iontophoresis with 6-hydroxydopamine was performed in rabbits previously infected with herpes simplex virus, McKrae strain. Viral shedding into the tear film was significantly decreased by the use of recombinant alpha interferon subtype D given as one drop qid. Interferon was noted in the tear film of rabbits 16-18 hours after the last placement of interferon drops into the inferior cul-de-sac.
