Aciclovir Cream is an antiviral medication used to treat cold sores caused by the herpes simplex virus. The active ingredient, aciclovir, works by stopping the virus from multiplying in your body, helping to reduce the severity and duration of cold sore outbreaks. This cream is suitable for anyone experiencing cold sores and looking to speed up the healing process.
For best results, apply a small amount of Aciclovir Cream to the affected area five times a day, every four hours, for five days. Make sure to wash your hands before and after application to prevent spreading the infection. If your symptoms persist after this period, consult your healthcare provider. Remember, this cream is for external use only and should not be ingested.
