Acyclovir
Acyclovir is the generic of
the prescription drug Zovirax.
Acyclovir is used to treat the
symptoms of chickenpox, shingles, herpes virus infections of the genitals,
the skin, the brain, and mucous membranes (lips and mouth), and
widespread herpes virus infections in newborns. Acyclovir is also
used to prevent recurrent genital herpes infections. Although
Acyclovir will not cure herpes,
it does help relieve the pain and discomfort and helps the sores (if any)
heal faster.
