<p num="1"><br/><br/><br/>Methods for treating viral infections using polyamine analogs, including <br/>mitoguazone (MGBG), are provided. In these methods, polyamine analogs destroy <br/>macrophages that act as viral reservoirs, facilitating the destruction of the <br/>viruses that dwell within the macrophages. Examples of viral infections that <br/>may be treated with the present methods include, but are not limited to, <br/>infections from human immunodeficiency viruses. These methods differ from <br/>previous methods of treatment using polyamine analogs, wherein the polyamine <br/>analogs were administered only as anti-tumor agents.<br/>
