Acivir cream is a topical medication that contains acyclovir, an antiviral agent. It is primarily used to treat outbreaks of herpes simplex virus (HSV) infections, including cold sores (oral herpes) and genital herpes. Acyclovir works by inhibiting the replication of the virus, helping to reduce the severity and duration of symptoms.
It's important to note that Acivir cream should be applied according to the instructions provided by a healthcare professional. It's typically used on the affected area of the skin where the herpes outbreak is occurring. If you suspect you have a herpes infection, consult a healthcare provider for proper diagnosis and treatment guidance.
