Drug Uses
Zovirax is used to treat herpes infections of the skin, lip, and genitals; herpes zoster (shingles); and chickenpox. It does not cure herpes infections but decreases pain and itching and promotes healing. Topical Zovirax does not prevent the recurrence of sores but may decrease pain and itching if applied when the earliest symptoms first appear. Oral Zovirax decreases the frequency and severity of recurrent sores, but it is used only by people with severe herpes infections because of possible adverse effects. This medication is sometimes prescribed for other uses; ask your doctor or pharmacist for more information.
How Taken
Treatment with Zovirax topical should be started as soon as possible after the first appearance of symptoms (e.g. tingling, burning, blisters).
Wash your hands before and after applying Zovirax topical.
Wear a glove or a finger cot or use an applicator (e.g. cotton swab) when applying Zovirax topical to avoid spreading the virus to other body parts and to other people.
Apply enough ointment to cover the lesion(s) completely. A one-half inch ribbon of ointment should cover approximately 4 square inches of surface area.
Avoid getting this medication in the eyes.
Zovirax topical is usually applied every 3 hours, six times a day for seven days. Follow your doctor's instructions.
Use Zovirax topical for the full amount of time prescribed, even if you begin to feel better. Your symptoms may start to improve before the infection is completely treated.
Lesions caused by herpes viruses should be kept as clean and dry as possible. Wearing loose clothing may help to prevent irritation of the lesions.
Warnings/Precautions
Before using Zovirax topical, tell your doctor if you have any other medical conditions or if you use any other medications.
Zovirax topical is in the FDA pregnancy category C, which means that it is not known whether it will harm an unborn baby. Do not use Zovirax topical without first talking to your doctor if you are pregnant.
It is not known whether Zovirax topical passes into breast milk. Do not use Zovirax topical without first talking to your doctor if you are breast feeding a baby.
Missed Dose
Apply it as soon as you remember and apply further doses at your regular interval (e.g., every 3 hours) until you go to bed. However, if it is almost time for the next dose, skip the missed dose and continue your regular dosing schedule. Do not take a double dose to make up for a missed one.
Possible Side Effects
No serious side effects are expected during treatment with Zovirax topical. If you suspect an allergic reaction (difficulty breathing; rash; hives; itching; swelling of your lips, tongue, or face) seek emergency medical attention.
Other less serious side effects may be more likely to occur. Continue to use Zovirax topical and talk to your doctor if you experience itching, stinging, burning, or a rash. These side effects should resolve quickly.
Side effects other than those listed here may also occur. Talk to your doctor about any side effect that seems unusual or that is especially bothersome.
Storage
Store below 25oC. Do not refrigerate.
Overdose
An overdose of this medication is not likely to occur. If you suspect an overdose or ingestion of Zovirax topical, call an emergency room or poison control left for advice.
More Information
Zovirax Cream is contra-indicated in patients known to be hypersensitive to acyclovir or propylene glycol.
Zovirax is most effective if it is started within 48 hours of when the rash first appears.
Follow the directions for using Zovirax provided by your doctor.

Testimonials
Just wanted to write and say that I'm VERY satisfied with my Zovirax purchase. I was skeptical at first, the price seemed too good and the shipping process too convoluted. But I sucked it up and took the plunge, ordered Zovirax and sat back to wait for packages that might never come. Happily I was SO wrong! The quality of the Zovirax is outstanding. If you're sitting there, wondering whether or not you should go ahead and make a purchase from Tramadol-tabs.com, quit wondering! The best prices, excellent service, and a top-notch product are all present here. Go for it!
I received both packets a few weeks ago and I am very pleased with Tramadol-tabs.com. Thank you for the extra 4 Zovirax samples. When dealing with people so far away, and through the internet, I sometimes wonder if I will even receive anything for my money. I would not hesitate to use your services again or to recommend you to friends.
