Abstract: Described are phosphatidyl compounds of the formula I ##STR1## in which R.sup.1 represents C.sub.3-14 -alkanoyl, benzoyl, the acyl radical of an .alpha.-aminocarboxylic acid that is other than glycine, L-alanine and derivatives thereof having a substituted amino group, and of which the .alpha.-amino group may be substituted by lower alkanoyl, lower alkoxycarbonyl or by benzyloxycarbonyl, or the acyl radical of a .beta.-aminocarboxylic acid or an .alpha.- or .beta.-hydroxycarboxylic acid,T represents a group NH that is unsubstituted or is substituted by lower alkyl, or oxygen,Y represents dimethylene that is unsubstituted or is substituted by free, etherified or amidated carboxy,W represents hydrogen, andZ represents a 1,2-dihydroxyethyl, 2-hydroxyethyl or hydroxymethyl group, in which at least one of the hydroxy groups is esterified by an aliphatic C.sub.8-30 -carboxylic acid or is etherified by an aliphaticC.sub.

Abstract: The invention relates to an antiherpetic lipstick which is characterized by a content of an antiherpetically active combination of at least one sulphatised polysaccharide or sulphatized polymer, or at least one salt thereof, for example heparin sodium, and a dissociable zinc salt, for example zinc sulphate heptahydrate, in admixture with a polyethylene glycol mixture of which the constituents have a molecular weight of between 300 and 4000. Such lipsticks may contain further additives, especially polyoxyethylene sorbitan fatty acid esters or sorbitan fatty acid esters. The invention relates also to the use of these lipsticks for the treatment of disorders of the lips and of other areas of the face caused by human herpes viruses.

Abstract: The invention relates to new pharmaceutical preparations for the topical treatment of infections caused by herpes viruses, especially those which have been caused by herpes virus hominis, for example of herpes genitalis and herpes dermatitis. The preparations contain as antiviral agent a synergistic combination of an acid sulphated polysaccharide or acid sulphated polymer, in particular heparin, and zinc ions, and may further contain polyoxyethylene sorbitan monolaurate and/or -monooleate. They are usual types of preparations for topical administration such as tinctures, solutions, creams, ointments and, especially, gels.

Abstract: Method for the treatment of herpes infections by administering a compound of the formula ##STR1## in which alk represents alkylene containing 1 to 4 carbon atoms,R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 independently of each other, represent hydrogen, alkyl containing 1 to 4 carbon atoms or together represent an alkylene radical containing 4 to 6 carbon atoms,R.sub.3 represents hydrogen, methyl or chlorine, andthe rings A and B, independently of each other, are unsubstituted or may be substituted by chlorine,or their pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts, and also the pharmaceutical compositions suitable for use in this method.
