Why is Acyclovir prescribed?

Acyclovir tablets are used in the treatment of certain infections with herpes viruses. These include genital herpes, shingles, and chickenpox. Acyclovir may not be appropriate for everyone, and its use should be thoroughly discussed with your doctor. Some doctors use Acyclovir, along with other drugs, in the treatment of AIDS, and for unusual herpes infections such as those following kidney and bone marrow transplants.

Most important fact about Acyclovir

Acyclovir 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.

How should you take Acyclovir?

Your Acyclovir should not be shared with others, and the prescribed dose should not be exceeded. You can take Acyclovir with or without food.

If you miss a dose of Acyclovir

Take it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the one you missed and go back to your regular schedule. Never take 2 doses at the same time.
