The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of zinc on recurrent herpes labialis.
MATERIALS/METHODS: Twenty patients (12 females; median age 26.6 years) with a history of recurrent herpes labialis >6 episodes each year were treated with systemic zinc sulphate 22.5 mg twice daily for the months of February, March, September and October. All patients were followed for 12 months.
Herpetic lesions reduced to <4 episodes (average 3) for the 12 months and the duration was <7 days for each episode (average 5.7).
Systemic zinc sulphate appeared to reduce both the number of episodes and the time to recovery of herpes labialis.
本研究的目的是调查锌对复发性唇疱疹的影响。
材料/方法:20例(12例女性;中位年龄26.6岁)每年复发性唇疱疹发作>6次的患者,于2月、3月、9月和10月接受每日两次、每次22.5毫克的全身性硫酸锌治疗。所有患者随访12个月。
在这12个月中,疱疹性损害减少至<4次发作(平均3次),且每次发作的持续时间<7天(平均5.7天)。
全身性硫酸锌似乎能减少唇疱疹的发作次数和恢复时间。
