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.
About Aciclovir cream
Dosage and usage
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.
What Aciclovir Cream contains
Each gram of Aciclovir Cream contains 50mg of aciclovir as the active ingredient. The cream also includes excipients such as propylene glycol, cetostearyl alcohol, liquid paraffin, white soft paraffin, and purified water.
Side effects
Common side effects of Aciclovir Cream may include mild stinging or burning at the application site. However, if you experience severe allergic reactions like rash, itching, dizziness, or trouble breathing, seek immediate medical help. In rare cases, prolonged or severe burning, redness, itching, or irritation may occur.
Precautions
Avoid using Aciclovir Cream if you are allergic to any of its ingredients. If you have a history of kidney problems or are pregnant, consult your doctor before using this cream. It's important to note that this cream is not intended for internal use and should be kept out of reach of children. If you are unsure whether this cream is suitable for you, seek advice from a healthcare professional.

I am so grateful to Doctoronline.co.uk and I can’t express my appreciation enough, as they were there when I couldn’t get an appointment with my own NHS GP here in London.They are absolutely amazing and they have taken away the stress and anxiety that I felt when I needed a GP appointment and the thought of going through the whole process and worrying about missing a telephone call from my GP practice because I was working and knowing they wouldn’t call back .
Excellent service.
Medication at a good price, quickly and securely delivered. Sensible but non intrusive questionnaire, and reassuring reviews.Will happily use Doctoronline again.

Very efficient
Very efficient. The website order form was simple and easy to follow. I couldn't get a doctor's appointment for a medication I have previously been prescribed so I opted to buy from this company instead. The price was reasonable and the medication worked perfectly and quickly and eradicated the problem, I'm back to good health again. It arrived quickly. I wouldn't hesitate to use this company again if necessary when I can't get a doctor's appointment.
