Description
1-Docosanol (Behenic alcohol) is a 22-carbon saturated fatty alcohol with antiviral properties. It acts by inhibiting the fusion of the herpes simplex virus envelope with the host cell plasma membrane, blocking viral entry. This mechanism underpins its topical use in research models of recurrent herpes labialis to study viral inhibition and potential therapeutic effects.
