Prophylactic role of long-term ultra-low-dose acyclovir for varicella zoster virus disease after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

TL;DR: This study shows that long-term ultra-low-dose acyclovir appears to be effective for preventing VZV disease, especially disseminated V zoster virus disease, after allogeneic HSCT, but additional strategies such as the administration of varicella vaccine may be needed to eradicate VzV disease.
