Aclovir 200mg Tablet

Aclovir 200mg Tablet is a widely used oral antiviral medication indicated for the treatment and suppression of herpes simplex virus (HSV) infections, including genital herpes, cold sores (herpes labialis), and herpes zoster (shingles). It belongs to the nucleoside analogue class of antivirals and works by inhibiting viral DNA replication, which helps control the infection and reduce the severity and duration of outbreaks.

Aclovir 200mg Tablet is commonly prescribed for initial episodes of herpes, as well as recurrent infections and long-term suppression in individuals with frequent outbreaks. It is also used to prevent herpes infections in people with weakened immune systems, such as those undergoing chemotherapy, organ transplants, or living with HIV/AIDS.

This strength is most often used in multiple daily dosing (typically five times a day), providing effective antiviral action throughout the day. While Acyclovir does not cure herpes, it plays a key role in symptom management, prevention of viral transmission, and improved quality of life in affected individuals.
