Buy Zovirax Cream Online | what is Acyclovir?
Buy Zovirax Cream Online | Acyclovir is an antiviral medication used to treat infections caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV) and varicella-zoster virus (VZV), which can cause chickenpox and shingles. It works by inhibiting the replication of the virus, which helps to reduce the severity and duration of the symptoms. Acyclovir is available in various forms, including oral tablets, capsules, and suspension, as well as topical cream and ointment. It is considered a safe and effective treatment option for herpes infections, but like any medication, it may cause side effects in some people. It is important to follow the dosage and usage instructions provided by your healthcare provider or pharmacist.
How to use / Take Acyclovir?
The usage and dosage instructions for acyclovir may vary depending on the condition being treated and the patient’s age and overall health. Here are some general guidelines for using acyclovir:
- Acyclovir is typically taken orally, with or without food, as directed by your healthcare provider.
- Drink plenty of water while taking acyclovir to help prevent kidney problems.
- For the treatment of herpes simplex infections, the recommended dose of acyclovir is usually 200 mg to 400 mg taken five times a day for 5 to 10 days.
- For the treatment of shingles, the recommended dose of acyclovir is usually 800 mg taken five times a day for 7 to 10 days.
- If you are using acyclovir cream or ointment for cold sores, apply a thin layer to the affected area every 3 hours, up to 6 times a day.
- If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dosing schedule.
- Do not stop taking acyclovir even if you start to feel better, unless instructed to do so by your healthcare provider.
How does Acyclovir works?
Acyclovir works by inhibiting the replication of the herpes simplex virus (HSV) and varicella-zoster virus (VZV), which are responsible for causing herpes infections, shingles, and chickenpox.
Once acyclovir enters the body, it is converted into its active form, acyclovir triphosphate, by a viral enzyme called thymidine kinase. Acyclovir triphosphate then binds to and inhibits the activity of the viral DNA polymerase enzyme, which is required for the virus to replicate and spread to other cells.
By blocking the replication of the virus, acyclovir helps to reduce the severity and duration of the symptoms associated with these viral infections, such as pain, itching, and blisters. However, it does not cure the underlying infection or prevent future outbreaks.
Acyclovir is highly selective for viral enzymes and does not interfere with normal cellular processes, which is why it has a low risk of causing side effects. It is considered a safe and effective treatment option for herpes infections, but like any medication, it may cause side effects in some people.
