Unit dosage forms, devices, and kits for topical delivery of topical immunosensitizers are provided. These include dermal patches, glass swabs, and kits containing a dermal patch and a glass swab. Among other advantages, the unit dosage forms, devices, and kits presented herein deliver a more consistent and controlled volume of drug solution, prevent underdosing and overdosing, prevent or discourage repeat dosing, and provide a more consistent skin area to which the drug solution is applied.

Non-specific delayed-type hypersensitivity response to treat herpes simplex virus infection
A method is presented for treating herpes simplex virus (HSV) infection comprising: (a) locally administering a substance that induces a delayed type hypersensitivity (DTH) response to a patient at a site other than at the site of an HSV lesion to induce a DTH response during one or more outbreaks of the HSV infection. The method reduces the number of HSV outbreaks in persons experiencing outbreaks.

TOPICAL IMMUNOSENSITIZERS TO TREAT VIRAL AND FUNGAL INFECTIONS
A method is presented for treating viral and fungal infections by applying a topical immunosensitizer to the skin of a person infected with a virus or fungus and in need of treatment for the viral or fungal infection. Methods of improving anti- viral and anti-fungal immunity are also presented, and methods of increasing PBMC interferon gamma expression in response to a viral or fungal immune stimulus.
