dimethyl sulfoxide has been researched along with Herpes Zoster in 28 studies
Dimethyl Sulfoxide: A highly polar organic liquid, that is used widely as a chemical solvent. Because of its ability to penetrate biological membranes, it is used as a vehicle for topical application of pharmaceuticals. It is also used to protect tissue during CRYOPRESERVATION. Dimethyl sulfoxide shows a range of pharmacological activity including analgesia and anti-inflammation.
dimethyl sulfoxide : A 2-carbon sulfoxide in which the sulfur atom has two methyl substituents.
Herpes Zoster: An acute infectious, usually self-limited, disease believed to represent activation of latent varicella-zoster virus (HERPESVIRUS 3, HUMAN) in those who have been rendered partially immune after a previous attack of CHICKENPOX. It involves the SENSORY GANGLIA and their areas of innervation and is characterized by severe neuralgic pain along the distribution of the affected nerve and crops of clustered vesicles over the area. (From Dorland, 27th ed)

"Both topical 40% idoxuridine in dimethylsulfoxide (IDU) and oral acyclovir (ACV) are useful in herpes zoster (HZ)." | 9.07 | [A topical solution of 40% idoxuridine in dimethyl sulfoxide compared to oral acyclovir in the treatment of herpes zoster.

"A double-blind, random selection comparison was made of the therapeutic effects in acute herpes zoster of (A) 40% idoxuridine (IDU) dissolved in dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO), or one of the following ointments: (B) a basis of polyethylene glycol, (C) a basis with 60% DMSO, (D) a basis with 5% IDU and 60% DMSO, and (E) a basis with 40% IDU and 60% DMSO." | 9.04 | Treatment of herpes zoster with idoxuridine ointment, including a multivariate analysis of symptoms and signs.

"An uncontrolled, double-blind, random-selection study of fifty consecutive patients with attacks of herpes zoster treated with one of two concentrations (5 per cent or 40 per cent) of idoxuridine (IDU) in dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO) has shown that, over all, the patients fared better than would have been expected had they been treated only symptomatically." | 9.04 | Idoxuridine in the treatment of herpes zoster.

"In a randomized double-blind controlled trial of the value of intermittent topical idoxuridine in treating herpes zoster in 118 patients idoxuridine 5% in 100% dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO), applied four-hourly for four days, significantly shortened the vesicular phase, healing time, and duration of pain; idoxuridine 25% applied two-hourly produced no greater benefit." | 9.04 | Idoxuridine in herpes zoster: further evaluation of intermittent topical therapy.
