Does IM-250 cure herpes?

No, IM-250 is not a cure for herpes, but it could make life with herpes easier by reducing outbreaks and keeping the virus dormant for longer.

Will I be able to stop other treatments if I take IM-250?

Possibly, but it’s too early to say for sure. Depending on the results of future trials, IM-250 might be used on its own or alongside other treatments.

How long until IM-250 is available?

Clinical trials take time. Even if IM-250 successfully passes all phases, it could be a few years before it becomes available to the public.

Can IM-250 help prevent transmission?

While reducing outbreaks might lower transmission risk, this hasn’t been specifically tested in trials yet.

Could IM-250 help with brain infections or other severe herpes cases?

Possibly. Because IM-250 reaches the nervous system, it could help with severe herpes cases, such as herpes encephalitis, but further studies are needed.
