So valcyte is a microglial inhibitor, not valtrex? I know I read an article by court Johnson that was showing valtrex was an inhibtor. So what about famvir?You are thinking of Valcyte, which is a different drug to Valtrex.
Just read article again and it was valcyte. So I guess valtrex and famvir are not microglial inhibitors. Too bad. Thanks for the response!You are thinking of Valcyte, which is a different drug to Valtrex.

Yes, I have 3 viruses: ebv, parvovirus and hhv6, but I haven't seen anywhere on lists that it inhibits microglial cells. I feel like I always have throbbing/inflammation pain all thru body and muscle spasms/twitching even in intestines. If Famvir is not inhibitor, thinking ofCan depend on what viruses you have as a common cause of microglia activation is viral infections .

asking dr. for LDN.
Ok, so not directly. Unfortunately, the famvir may not touch the parvovirus. Thanks for the info.!What im getting at is that if famvir can lower the amount of viruses that could be increasing microglia , so indirectly lower microglia by stopping viruses that produce it??

Thanks for the suggestions!. Otherwise I would look into interferon inducers such as inosine /immunovir or i think dr chia has used equilibrant although its mostly used for enteroviruses .
