39. Eyezirgan - How topical Ganciclovir is changing our treatment of HSV (Dr. Parwez Hossain)

With the arrival of Eyezirgan (commercial available topical ganciclovir), we now have a more readily accessible preservative-free option for treatment of HSV. So why is Eyezirgan a potentially important new player on the market? How does one decide between oral or topical treatments for HSV, and is there a longer-term role for antivirals in the treatment of Zoster, in addition to just HSV? Dr. Parwez Hossain joins the podcast.
