Zovirax is used to treat cold sores and genital herpes infections. Zovirax may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.
Zovirax may also be referred to by the following as a “Zovirax Cream” or “Gel”.
Zovirax Creams and Gels contain the active ingredient acyclovir, which belongs to a class of medications called antiviral medications. Aciclovir is an antiviral medication that works by blocking the replication of viruses in the cells infected with the herpes virus. These viruses then spread and cause the sores to heal. Zovirax Creams and Gels only act as creams and gels and do not contain the active ingredient. Do not use Zovirax if you are also using ayrimidal or anthelmintial agent such as mophytosis or jatoxylum.
Zovirax Cream and Gel should not be used if you are or may be experiencing cold sores or genital herpes infections. Before you use Zovirax Cream and Gel, it is important to tell your doctor and pharmacist about all the medications you are taking, other medicines you are taking, including prescription and non-prescription medicines, vitamins, and herbal supplements. Do not start taking Zovirax Cream and Gel suddenly without talking to your doctor or pharmacist first.
