Used For:
Acyclovir is an antiviral medication used to treat infections caused by herpes viruses. It is commonly prescribed to manage conditions such as genital herpes, cold sores (herpes labialis), shingles (herpes zoster), and chickenpox. Acyclovir works by inhibiting the replication of the virus, helping to reduce symptoms and speed up recovery. It may also be used in immunocompromised individuals to prevent or treat herpes simplex virus (HSV) and varicella-zoster virus (VZV) infections.
Side Effects:
Common side effects include nausea, diarrhea, headache, and dizziness. Rare but serious side effects may include kidney problems, confusion, seizures, and allergic reactions such as skin rashes or swelling. Prolonged use or high doses can increase the risk of kidney damage, especially in patients with pre-existing kidney issues.
Precautions:
Acyclovir should be used with caution in individuals with kidney disease or dehydration, as it can affect kidney function. Adequate hydration is important during treatment to reduce the risk of kidney damage. It may interact with other medications, including nephrotoxic drugs or those that affect renal function. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult a healthcare provider before use, although it is generally considered safe during pregnancy.
