I read a news about a new drug for hsv, what is it about, when is going to be able to get it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
HSV?: Are you sure you're not talking about hcv? There's nothing new that i'm aware of for hsv, and little reason for new drugs. The drugs available now (valacyclovir, acyclovir, and famciclovir) are generic, cheap, safe, well tolerated, and effective.
