Question:
There is a documented study on it's use with herpes patients here:

http://www.dmso.org/articles/herpes/gherpes.htm


Of the 40 patients who initially enrolled in this patient-initiated clinical trial and received tubes of medication, 20 completed therapy of one HSV recurrence (12 medicated, 8 placebo). Of these 20, 19 individuals continued participation in the study through the 60- to 90-day posttreatment follow-up visit.The patients in the interferon-treated group demonstrated decreased viral shedding and more rapid healing than those in the placebo group. 66% of the interferon-treated patients were culture negative after 24 h of treatment (day 1), whereas only 25% of the patients in the placebo group were culture negative at that time (p<0> 0.66; fig. 1). On day 5, 25% of the patients in the placebo group had active lesions, while no patients in the interferon group had active lesions (p > 0.02).
