Aciclovir is a type of medication that is used to treat various conditions. It works by inhibiting the conversion of antiviral to viral enzymes, which are responsible for the development and production of the body’s immune response.
When a person is prescribed Aciclovir, they can expect to get a prescription from their GP for the drug at the Pharmacy.
This is typically the first line of treatment for a person who has a history of recurrent outbreaks of genital herpes, such as chickenpox. This medication is prescribed to treat herpes symptoms such as cold sores, which are the symptoms that people experience when they are infected with the herpes virus. The medication can also be used to treat other types of herpes, such as the varicella-zoster virus, which is responsible for causing chickenpox and shingles. This medication is typically used to treat aciclovir-resistant strains of herpes viruses, which can cause severe infections. In addition to treating these types of herpes, Aciclovir is also used to treat other types of herpes and is not typically recommended to treat other types of herpes. Aciclovir can be prescribed for herpes simplex infections, such as genital herpes and chickenpox, and as an antifungal to treat other conditions that are caused by herpes simplex virus. Aciclovir is also used to treat other types of herpes, such as the varicella-zoster virus, which is responsible for causing chickenpox and shingles. This medication is often prescribed as part of a comprehensive treatment plan to prevent the transmission of herpes to the person taking the medication.
If you are prescribed Aciclovir and need to be treated with it, you may find it difficult to get an appointment with your GP due to a medical reason, such as a recent episode of herpes.
If you are prescribed Aciclovir and need to be treated with it, you may find it difficult to get an appointment with your GP due to a medical reason, such as a recent episode of genital herpes.

How often do I take suppressive treatment? You take one aciclovir 400mg tablet twice a day.
Thetreatment is continued for six to 12 months. Then you have a break from medication to re-assess recurrence frequency. Suppressive treatment may be restarted if you have further severe outbreaks. Suppressive treatment can reduce the risk of passing HSV on to your partner but it cannot prevent it altogether and so you should always wear a female or male condom during any sexual activity. If you are experiencing recurrent outbreaks of genital herpes you should also consider being tested for HIV as it may be a sign of a weakened immune system due to HIV.Caution: It’s important to maintain adequate hydration while taking either of the treatments for genital herpes.
You can continue using aciclovir for life in a 400mg tablet. Children are not advised treatment. If you are experiencing any menstrual changes or are considering taking a 400mg tablet,olesterol-lowering agents like bevacil®, cetirizine (antaenda), cetirizine (dexvir), cetirizine (dexvir), valacyclovir (VZV), lamotrigine (lamotrigine), zovirax (ZVTF), or valtrex (Valacyclovir) are available that you can take every single day.

Aciclovir can influence your liver when taken in the first place so it is essential to have a liver function check every 6 months during treatment with aciclovir.
