SUBSTANCE: invention refers to medicine, namely to methods for a vaccine therapy of herpetic infection. For this purpose, antigen-presenting dendritic cells (DC) taken from patient's blood are loaded with viral antigens that are originally found in a standard anti-herpetic vaccine representing suspended formalin-killed type I and II viruses of herpetic fever. The prepared vaccine is administered into the patient intracutaneously in 4-6 points along lymphatic collectors. The vaccine therapy course consists of 3-4 injections. A vaccine dosage interval makes 2 to 4 weeks. An initial vaccine dose makes 1×10⁶-2×10⁶ DC; for the second administration, the dose is increased twice; for the third administration the dose is increased 4 times as compared to the first administration.
