Description
Indications
Acyclovir ointment is employed for the initial occurrences of genital herpes (a herpes viral infection that leads to the development of sores around the genital and rectal areas intermittently) and for the treatment of specific kinds of sores caused by the herpes simplex virus in individuals with compromised immune systems. Acyclovir falls into a category of antiviral medications known as synthetic nucleoside analogues. Its mechanism of action involves halting the dissemination of the herpes virus within the body.
Uses and Dosage
Topical acyclovir is available as a cream and an ointment designed for application to the skin. The recommended usage for acyclovir cream involves applying it five times a day over the course of four days. For optimal results, it is most effective when applied at the onset of a cold sore outbreak, typically characterized by tingling, redness, itching, or the presence of a bump before the cold sore fully develops.
Acyclovir ointment, on the other hand, is typically applied six times a day, with applications spaced approximately 3 hours apart, and this regimen continues for 7 days. Commence the use of acyclovir ointment as soon as the initial infection symptoms manifest.
Adhere strictly to the prescribed directions for the application of topical acyclovir. Avoid using it in excess, reducing the amount, or using it more frequently than advised by your doctor.
With the appropriate use of topical acyclovir, you should notice an improvement in your symptoms. If there is no improvement or if your symptoms worsen, promptly contact your doctor.
Remember that acyclovir cream and ointment are intended exclusively for application to the skin. Ensure that acyclovir cream or ointment does not come into contact with your eyes, mouth, or nose, and never ingest the medication.
Acyclovir cream should only be applied to skin areas where a cold sore has already emerged or where the development of one is likely. Avoid applying acyclovir cream to unaffected skin or to sores from genital herpes.
During the use of acyclovir cream, refrain from applying other skin medications or various types of skincare products, such as cosmetics, sunscreen, or lip balm, to the area affected by the cold sore unless explicitly advised by your doctor.

Some side effects may occur that usually do not need medical attention:
dry or cracked lips

Caution
Prior to commencing acyclovir treatment, inform your doctor or pharmacist of any allergies you may have, whether they are related to acyclovir, valacyclovir, or any other substances. This product may include inactive components that have the potential to trigger allergic reactions or other adverse effects.
Before initiating this medication, discuss your medical history with your doctor or pharmacist.
If you are pregnant, you should inform your doctor before using this medication. Have a thorough discussion with your doctor about the potential risks and benefits associated with the use of acyclovir during pregnancy.
While acyclovir may be excreted into breast milk in minimal quantities, it is unlikely to have detrimental effects on a nursing infant. Consult your doctor prior to breastfeeding.
If you have herpes sores located on or near your breast, it is best to refrain from breastfeeding during that time.
