221 patients with Herpes zoster have undergone the treatment. They were given cimetidine in the daily dose 3 x 200 mg and 1 x 400 mg to night. It was proved that the efficacy of the Herpes zoster treatment by cimetidine is inversely proportional to the time of the disease duration. The authors suggest to use cimetidine in the treatment of Herpes zoster virus infections even during the prodromal period.
This studies included 15 children with burns involving 10-55% of the whole body surface, treated at the two surgical departments in Poland. All patients have been given 0.5 mL of a 15% solution of anti-Pseudomonas immunoglobulin in a deep i.m. injections for 3 consecutive days. Immunoglobulin has generally been well tolerated, except short fever attacks. Human anti-Pseudomonas immunoglobulin prepared in the institute of Haematology and Transfusion in Warsaw prevented infections with P. aeruginosa in 12 burned children. There have been no cases of bacteremia produced by P. aeruginosa in 15 treated children with burns. The obtained results indicate efficacy of such therapy in burned children.
Clinical course of herpes zoster was assessed in 119 immuno-competent and in 28 immuno-compromised hosts. Complications of herpes zoster were observed in one third cases. However, the frequency of post-herpetic neuralgia was lower than that seen by other authors. Despite severe underlying diseases in compromised hosts, good outcome of herpes zoster was obtained. It may be related to the use of aciclovir in all these cases. Early and rational treatment with aciclovir is important for decreasing of the frequency of severe complications of herpes zoster.
