What is Zovirax 200mg
Zovirax 200mg Tablets contain the active ingredient Acyclovir, an antiviral medication used to treat infections caused by certain types of viruses. It is commonly prescribed for the treatment of:
Herpes simplex virus infections such as cold sores, genital herpes, and shingles (herpes zoster).
Varicella zoster virus infections such as chickenpox.
Effects of Zovirax 200mg
Zovirax 200mg Tablet Acyclovir, the main ingredient in Zovirax, is called a DNA polymerase inhibitor.
DNA polymerase is an enzyme involved in viral DNA replication, and acyclovir has the effect of suppressing viral proliferation by inhibiting DNA polymerase.
Acyclovir not only suppresses the proliferation of the virus, but also suppresses the appearance of skin eruptions and the deterioration of skin lesions.
It is more effective if taken early in the onset of the disease when there is less virus, and early treatment can also prevent the disease from worsening, resulting in faster recovery.
Herpes simplex virus, such as cold sores and genital herpes, and the varicella/shingles virus are microorganisms that are different from bacteria. They are smaller than bacteria, and have the characteristic of multiplying within the cells of living organisms by creating blisters on the skin and mucous membranes.
