Zovirax Cold Sore (Aciclovir)

Zovirax Cold Sore (Aciclovir) cream helps reduce the duration of cold sore outbreaks. Suitable for adults and children over 12, it targets the herpes simplex virus at the source. Fast-acting and easy to apply, it supports healing when used early. Ideal for occasional flare-ups.

Zovirax Cold Sore cream is used to treat cold sores caused by the herpes simplex virus. It helps shorten healing time and reduce symptoms like tingling, itching, and blistering. Apply at the first sign of a cold sore for best results. It is not a cure but may limit outbreak severity.

When applied as directed, Zovirax Cold Sore cream may help the cold sore heal faster and feel less uncomfortable. Some users notice reduced redness and swelling within a few days. It works locally on the affected area without affecting the whole body. Results vary by individual and timing of application.

Keep Zovirax Cold Sore cream away from eyes, mouth, and mucous membranes. Do not use on broken or severely irritated skin. Wash hands before and after applying to avoid spreading the virus. Avoid sharing towels or items that touch the sore to prevent transmission. Stop use if irritation occurs and consult a healthcare provider.

Zovirax Cold Sore cream is for external use only and has minimal systemic absorption, so drug interactions are unlikely. Avoid using other topical treatments on the same area unless directed. Do not combine with strong skin products like retinoids or exfoliants without medical advice. Keep away from open flames or heat sources.
