Brief Summary: To determine the safety effectiveness and toxicity of topical local trifluridine in treating mucocutaneous at the nasal oral vaginal and anal openings Herpes simplex virus HSV disease that has shown resistance to acyclovir in HIV-infected patients HSV infection in patients with AIDS is often associated with skin sores and frequent recurrences Treatment with the drug acyclovir results in healing for most patients but repeated treatment sometimes results in resistance of the virus to acyclovir Thus when this happens other treatments need to be used Trifluridine is an antiviral drug that is used for the treatment of Herpes infections that occur in the eye This study attempts to determine if trifluridine is useful for treating HSV sores that have not healed after treatment with acyclovir

Patients receive at least 10 days and up to 42 days of treatment with topical trifluridine Trifluridine is applied in a thin fluid layer that overlaps the edges of the lesion Polymyxin B sulfatebacitracin zinc ointment is then applied over the trifluridine Lesions are covered by a nonabsorbent dressing Medication is applied every 8 hours
