Description

DL-Lysine hydrochloride is a salt of lysine and hydrochloric acid. It is used in clinical settings to treat herpes simplex virus infections and may also be used for treatment of other viral diseases such as cytomegalovirus, varicella zoster virus, or human immunodeficiency virus. The drug is administered intravenously and can be combined with other drugs such as acyclovir or ganciclovir. DL-Lysine hydrochloride has been shown to inhibit the replication of herpes simplex virus (HSV) in tissue culture by interfering with the release of cytoplasm from the infected cell. In cell culture studies, DL-lysine hydrochloride has been shown to inhibit HSV's ability to bind to cells' surfaces and enter cells.
