Abstract
Methods and combinations of an agent that promotes DNA synthesis in a virally-targeted cell and a nucleoside analogue having antiviral activity are provided for treating a viral infection in a subject in need thereof. Such compositions are particularly effective where the subject has resistance to a nucleoside analogue, where the subject has resting cellular reservoirs of such a virus, or to induce a post-treatment period of replication incompetence of such a virus.
