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

Remember, this cream is for external use only and should not be ingested.

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.
