Abstract
Lysozyme is a natural enzyme with antiviral, antibacterial and immunomodulant action. This drug has several dermatological applications, particularly in the therapy of some viral skin diseases such as herpes zoster, viral warts and aphthous stomatitis. In this work, the author has evaluated the efficacy of high dosage lysozyme in the treatment of 30 patients with herpes zoster infection and in 10 patients affected with viral flat warts. The good results obtained in this clinical trial confirm those reported in previous papers and indicate the usefulness of this therapy.
