Aciclovir is an antiviral agent used to treat infections caused by the herpes simplex virus affecting the oral area. - Herpes simplex labialis (cold sores): reduces lesion duration and promotes faster healing. - Herpes simplex lip infection: limits viral replication and alleviates associated pain and swelling. - Recurrent herpes labialis outbreaks: helps manage and shorten the course of repeated episodes. - Primary herpes simplex infection of the lip: decreases severity of the initial outbreak.

Topical aciclovir cream may cause local skin reactions, most of which are mild and transient.

Common Side Effects: - Mild skin irritation: redness or soreness at the application site. - Burning sensation: temporary warmth or tingling where the cream is applied. - Itching: occasional pruritus around the treated area. - Dryness: slight dryness or flaking of the skin. - Stinging sensation: brief sharp feeling after application. - Erythema: mild redness extending beyond the lesion. - Swelling: minor edema at the site.

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Allergic contact dermatitis: rash, swelling, or hives indicating hypersensitivity. - Severe skin reactions: rare events such as Stevens‑Johnson syndrome or toxic epidermal necrolysis. - Systemic absorption leading to renal toxicity: extremely uncommon but reported with extensive use.

When using Koortslipcrème Aciclovir Etos, follow these precautionary measures to ensure safe and effective treatment. - Application: apply a thin layer to the affected area as directed by a healthcare professional. - Avoid on extensive broken skin: do not use on large areas of damaged skin beyond the lesions. - Allergy: discontinue use if signs of hypersensitivity such as rash or swelling appear. - Pregnancy: safety not established; consult a physician before use during pregnancy. - Children: use only under medical supervision, especially in young children. - Store at room temperature: keep in the original container, protect from moisture and direct sunlight.

Aciclovir may interact with certain systemic medications or topical agents, affecting its efficacy or safety.

Major Interactions (Avoid): - Systemic aciclovir: concurrent use may increase systemic exposure and risk of toxicity. - Nephrotoxic drugs (e.g., aminoglycosides, NSAIDs): may heighten risk of renal impairment when combined.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - Topical corticosteroids: may reduce antiviral effectiveness of the cream. - Immunosuppressants: may alter healing response and increase infection risk. - Other topical antivirals: overlapping use can lead to unnecessary duplication of therapy.
