RESUMO

The labial herpes is a very common viral disease and it is strongly linked with stress. Caused by the HSV, herpes is a pathology of great importance to collective health professionals, because the number of patients who look for the public assistance service is high. In the last decade the society was created new patterns related to the concept of health/disease and this view is mainly because of the idea that it is not due to the absence of pathologies but also the physical/ emotional and social well being. These changes have been favoring the appearance and strengthening of the alternative therapies, such as chinese medicine, acupuncture, phytotherapy, homeopathy, and others. The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficiency of a salve based on Casearia Sylvestris (Cs) tincture to 10 % and from the dynamic 3dh in herpes treatement, comparing with the Penciclovir 1% salve (Penvirlabia – Sigma lab ). A double -blind study was made with an assay of 93 volunteers, males and females, in good health conditions, with ages varying between 18 and 60,living in Belo Horizonte city, who demonstrated labial herpes sore. Three groups randomly were crated, each group used one of the studied medicines, and the volunteers were accompanied until the total sore healed. Results show that the Casearia Sylvestris salve caused one better and meaningful healing (KruskalWallis p<0,05), because the process happened in fewer days. It is possible to consider these medicines as one alternative rather than the conventional treatment, considering the low cost and high efficiency already demonstrated.
