Antiviral Therapy

Acyclovir

Prescription antiviral medication for herpes virus infections, including cold sores and genital herpes.

Acyclovir is a proven antiviral medication used to treat infections caused by herpes viruses, including genital herpes, cold sores, shingles, and chickenpox. It works by preventing the replication of viral DNA, reducing the severity and duration of outbreaks, and promoting faster healing. While acyclovir does not cure herpes, it helps control symptoms, reduce recurrence, and lower transmission risk when taken as prescribed.
