Difference between Acyclovir and Ganciclovir in the Treatment of Children with Epstein–Barr Virus-Associated Infectious Mononucleosis

Abstract

In the treatment of children with EBV-IM, the therapeutic effect of ganciclovir is obviously superior to that of acyclovir. Ganciclovir can quickly eliminate the symptoms of angina, fever, enlarged lymph nodes, and other signs in children, can improve abnormal blood indicators, and has a higher negative conversion rate of EBV and less adverse reactions.
