herpes zoster--is q virus infec-I

|ful, and itchy. Pain and Itch
ing may last two to three weeks.
Ia main treatment has been to
give pain-relieving drugs.
Good and even dramatic re-
suits In hating the pain and
clearing up the rash with pro-
tamide are reported in North
west Medicine by Drs. Henry w.,
Henry G. and David r. Lehrer
|of Sandusky. Ohio.
The drug quickly relieved pain
in all but one Of 100 patients
treated, they said. Results we're
most dramatic If treatment was
started soon after the shingles
rash appeared.
Protamide Is q protein de-
stroying engine obtained from
animal stomachs. just how it
acts to relieve pain In shingles
or some forms of neuritis is not
known. Earlier reports on small
Ter numbers of patients also
credited 1t with good effects in
shingles.
It is given by injection and
usually two or three shots stop
ped the pain and cleared up the
rash, the Drs. Lehrer said.
The same report said pro-
tamide had relieved neuritis pain
in all but one Of 313 other pa
Itients. They had neuritis which
was not caused by mechanical
pressure, such as q spinal disc
Ipressing on nerves. They had
mot been helped by use of B-vita-
minis or physical tf1erapy. Their
lneuritis was overcome in few
days. rather than perSisting for
weeks, the physicians said.
