[The immunotherapy of herpetic stomatitis in children].

Abstract

Immunoglobulin with a high titer of antiherpetic antibodies (1:640 to 1:1280) was used for the treatment of children with acute and recurrent herpetic stomatitis. The agent was injected intramuscularly, 2 to 4 injections, depending on the disease severity. The results evidence a favorable effect of the drug on the clinical and immunologic parameters of patients suffering from the acute condition and permit a conclusion that this immunoglobulin prevented the development of recurrent forms in the children with the acute disease.
