ABSTRACT:
Disclosed are methods for repressing reproduction of latent viruses, such as HIV, in animals by the generally concurrent administration of (1) antioxidants including a glutathione agent; and (2) an NFKB induction inhibitor. Also disclosed are pharmaceutical compositions and kits for use in repressing reproduction of latent viruses such as HIV.
