Aciclovir is used to treat viral infections, such as chickenpox, genital herpes, shingles and cold sores. It is also used to prevent infections in those with a lowered immune system. When taking aciclovir, it is best to drink a lot of water, to avoid dehydration. This is especially important for those who are elderly or have a dose of 4G a day or higher. It is recommended for those with nervous system abnormalities to make sure the doctor knows before starting treatment. 

This treatment pack contains two strengths of Aciclovir Tablets, see below:

168 Aciclovir 400mg Tablets - for prevention of a recurrence/re-appearance of genital herpes (previously diagnosed)

50 Aciclovir 200mg Tablets - for herpes outbreaks
