Drug

Zovirax (acyclovir) is a cold sore-fighting agent used for the treatment of herpes zoster (shingles) and shingles. It is a brand-name medicine from the group of medicines known as acyclovir and is used to treat herpes simplex virus (HSV) infection. Zovirax is a tetracycline-class antiviral agent. It inhibits the synthesis of viral DNA in the human body. This stops the replication of the virus and other viruses from entering the body. This prevents the virus from replicating, but it does not cure the virus.

Uses

Zovirax is used to treat genital herpes, shingles, and chickenpox in adults and children over the age of 2 years. It is also used to treat herpes simplex virus infections in adults and children with the following symptoms:

It can also be used to treat a variety of viral infections caused by a virus called Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). Zovirax works by interfering with the replication of the virus, decreasing the severity and duration of the infection.

It is not for use in children younger than 1 year old.

Benefits

Zovirax is effective against herpes simplex virus (HSV) and shingles. It is also effective against herpes zoster (shingles) and chickenpox in adults and children over the age of 2 years. Zovirax may also be used for the treatment of chickenpox in children, although it is not currently approved by the FDA for this use in adults.

Side Effects

In some people, Zovirax may cause side effects. These include:

These side effects are usually mild and temporary. However, if they become severe or don’t go away after a while, see your doctor as soon as possible. If any of these side effects continue or become bothersome, see your doctor as soon as possible.

Important Note:Always consult your doctor before starting or stopping Zovirax, especially if you have any underlying medical conditions, taking any prescription or over-the-counter medication, or if you have recently had a heart attack or stroke. They can help you understand the risks and benefits of Zovirax and other antiviral medications.
