Zovirax Ajakherpesz

Zovirax Ajakherpesz (aciclovir) is a topical antiviral treatment for cold sores. It helps reduce symptoms like blistering and pain when applied early. This EU-made cream is for cutaneous use only. Suitable for adults and children over 12.

What is aciclovir used for? Aciclovir cream is primarily used to treat cold sores caused by the herpes simplex virus. It works by slowing the growth of the virus, which may help sores heal faster. The cream is applied directly to the affected area on the lips or face. It is not a cure but can shorten outbreak duration.

Aciclovir cream may help reduce the severity and duration of cold sore symptoms such as tingling, itching, and blistering. Some users notice faster healing of lesions when treatment begins at the first sign of an outbreak. The cream is generally well-tolerated when used as directed.

Avoid applying aciclovir cream to eyes, mouth, or inside the nose. Wash hands before and after use to prevent spreading the virus. If irritation occurs, discontinue use and consult a healthcare provider. Keep the tube tightly closed and store at room temperature away from moisture.

No significant drug interactions are reported with topical aciclovir. However, avoid using other skin treatments on the same area unless directed. If you are using other antiviral medications, inform your healthcare provider. Alcohol and food do not affect the cream’s action.
