Of all the delusions a person can have…
Common Sore Cream Can Make You Believe You Are Dead
A new study published in Journal of the Neurological Sciences has identified a link between Acyclovir – also known as the common cold sore cream Zovirax, (which can additionally be used to treat herpes, chicken pox and shingles) – and Cotard’s syndrome, a rare condition causing people to believe they have died, that parts of their body do not exist, or that they have ‘lost’ their blood and internal organs.
Yeesh.
