ZOVIRAX (Oral Acyclovir) is used for treating genital herpes, herpes zoster, and chickenpox. ZOVIRAX reduces the pain and the number of lesions in the initial case of genital herpes, and decreases the frequency and severity of recurrent infections. In the treatment of shingles, acyclovir reduces pain, shortens the healing time, and limits the spread of virus and the formation of new lesions.

Uses

ZOVIRAX is used to treat herpes infections of the skin, mouth, mucous membranes, genital herpes, herpes zoster (shingles), and chickenpox in some individuals. ZOVIRAX does not cure herpes, but relieves the pain and may make the infection clear faster

How to take

Your medication should not be shared with others, and the prescribed dose should not be exceeded. You can take ZOVIRAX with or without food.
ZOVIRAX does not cure herpes. However, it does reduce pain and may help the sores caused by herpes to heal faster. Genital herpes is a sexually transmitted disease. To reduce the chance of infecting your partner, forgo intercourse and other sexual contact while you have sores or any other symptom.
