Any comments on this? Do you think it could be harmful? Oh, and there only charging $80 for a 1 oz bottle.
~Hanan The proposed mechanism of ViraDerm as an antiviral is unclear. Studies indicate that its patented formulation and its active ingredient, stannous fluoride (SnF2) interferes with cellular metabolism and cellular membranes of microorganisms including viral membranes of the herpes virus. ViraDerm contains an antimicrobial preparation which has been safely used by the medical community for more than 40 years. Over the years many investigators have shown that stannous fluoride inhibits bacterial growth. Recent studies and observations by scientists proposed that ionized tin or stannous affect microbial cellular membranes. Recent studies conducted by Embro Research Corporation, Procter & Gamble and Product Investigations show that ViraDerm can influence the course of a herpes virus infection. It has been proposed that stannous ions ( Sn ++) in ViraDerm bind to the membrane of herpes simplex virus preventing its ability to infect epidermal tissue. It has been proposed that stannous released by ViraDerm is capable of crosslinking herpes virus DNA by bonding to its negatively charged phosphate groups. -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.
