Description

What is Aciclovir?

Aciclovir, an antiviral, is used for treating or preventing infections caused by the herpes virus. This can be a cold sore, usually seen in the mouth area, as well as genital and anus herpes. Learn more about aciclovir's uses here.

Aciclovir is a generic name for tablets containing aciclovir as the active ingredient. This medicine comes in a branded form called Zovirax. The non-branded version is less expensive, yet equally effective.

Herpes can be treated with aciclovir. It will not cure the disease but it will suppress symptoms and stop virus growth. Aciclovir is also used to stop recurrent outbreaks. In the UK, it is the number one treatment for genital shingles.

How Does Aciclovir Work?

A cold sore typically starts as a tingling, burning sensation around the mouth. Herpes simplex virus causes STIs, such as genital herpes, and cold sores. The symptoms of herpes progress and appear as clusters of small, fluid-filled blisters that burst and become dry and crusty. Aciclovir treats sore spots fast as it is very contagious. The remedy helps to prevent the herpes simplex virus from growing and spreading. It does not kill the virus, but aids your bodys immune system to fight off the infection. The cold sore symptoms clear within 5 to 7 days.
