Description
- Aciclovir is a treatment for the herpes simplex STD virus that is responsible for causing cold sores. The drug falls under antiviral medicine. It is packaged as cream and tablets.
- This medication should be used immediately if you experience itchy skin or burning pain in the genitals, indicating Herpes.
- How Does Aciclovir Work?
- A cold sore typically starts as a tingling, burning sensation around the mouth. Herpes simplex virus causes STIs, such as genital herpes, and cold sores. The symptoms of herpes progress and appear as clusters of small, fluid-filled blisters that burst and become dry and crusty.
- Aciclovir treats sore spots fast as it is very contagious. The remedy helps to prevent the herpes simplex virus from growing and spreading. It does not kill the virus, but aids your body’s immune system to fight off the infection. The cold sore symptoms clear within 5 to 7 days.
Warnings
- Before you take Aciclovir, inform your doctor of any kidney problems or nervous system abnormalities.
- Remain fully hydrated while taking Aciclovir. It will minimise the effect on the kidneys.
- Inform your doctor of any medicines you are taking.
- Whilst alcohol is not prohibited while taking this medication, it is important to limit consumption to allow the medication to work correctly.
Directions
- Begin taking Aciclovir tablets as soon as you notice symptoms of the herpes virus, like ulcers on the mouth.
- Swallow one tablet three times a day for five days.
