Zovirax Suspension (Aciclovir) is an antiviral medication used to treat infections caused by herpes simplex and varicella-zoster viruses. This oral suspension provides relief for symptoms like cold sores and shingles. It works by slowing virus growth. Always follow usage instructions.

Zovirax Suspension is commonly used to treat infections caused by herpes simplex viruses, including cold sores and genital herpes. It may also be prescribed for varicella-zoster virus infections like shingles. The medication helps reduce symptoms and speed recovery when taken as directed. It does not cure infections but can lessen their severity.

This suspension works by interfering with the virus’s ability to multiply, helping the body manage outbreaks more effectively. Users often notice reduced pain and faster healing of affected areas. Some may experience mild relief from symptoms like itching or burning within a few days of starting treatment. Effects vary based on individual response and timing of use.

Keep the suspension refrigerated and shake well before each use to ensure proper dosing. Do not use if the liquid appears discolored or contains particles. Store securely away from children and pets. Inform your healthcare provider about any existing kidney conditions before use. Complete the full prescribed course even if symptoms improve early.

Certain medications, such as probenecid or cimetidine, may affect how aciclovir is processed in the body. Caution is advised when combining with other drugs that impact kidney function. Alcohol may increase drowsiness or dizziness in some users. Always disclose all medications and supplements to your healthcare provider before starting treatment.
