Abstract
Herpesvirus infections are widespread in humans. Approximately 6–10% of adults suffer from genital herpes and 10–20% of them have recurrent disease. Herpesvirus infections (including asymptomatic and silent forms) were found to have a negative effect on human reproductive health. Herpes simplex virus can infect germ cells, impair spermatogenesis, and play a certain pathogenetic role in the development of infertility. Herpes is a serious medical and social problem. Patients with recurrent herpes often have imbalanced immune responses involving interferons and other cytokines, as well as inhibition of cellular and phagocytic reactions of the organism. Meglumine acridone acetate, an interferon inducer, demonstrated high clinical and immunological efficacy in the treatment and prevention of recurrent herpes. The drug can be combined with other medications and is well tolerated by patients. Key words: immune response, immunomodulators, recurrent herpesvirus infections, efficacy of meglumine acridone acetate
