Jim Humble would say Protocol 1000 for herpes - I would guess that it would take longer than 3 weeks, and that you would also benefit from the use of activated MMS with a small amount of DMSO applied on the surface of the face. If it were me, I'd be aware of 2 things - 1 is, the first time I used DMSO, did I experience any discomfort in the liver area (which means liver has problems, and you need to get it balanced out before using DMSO) - and 2. I'd not use a DMSO stronger than 70% - and if that's too strong (wash it off if it gets too "hot"), I'd go down to 50%.
I believe Jim HUmble recommends 4 days on, 3 days off (this is protocol 3000)
