Valcivir-500 Tablet is utilized for the treatment of viral infections. It is essential in managing cold sores (an inflamed blister around the mouth caused by the herpes simplex virus), genital herpes (a prevalent sexually transmitted infection characterized by genital pain and sores), and herpes zoster (a viral infection that leads to a painful rash).
Valcivir-500 Tablet contains valacyclovir, which functions by inhibiting the replication of viruses within human cells, thereby halting the spread of viruses and the formation of new viral particles.
Occasionally, you might encounter side effects such as headaches, dizziness, nausea or vomiting, diarrhea, and increased sensitivity of the skin to sunlight. Most of these side effects are not serious and typically resolve on their own over time. However, if the side effects persist, it is advisable to consult your doctor.
Do not administer Valcivir-500 Tablet if you have an allergy to Valcivir-500 Tablet, valacyclovir, or any of its components. Consult your doctor if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or taking any other prescribed or over-the-counter medications. It is important to use protection during sexual intercourse to prevent the transmission of genital herpes (a sexually transmitted infection) to your partner.
