  • PRESCRIBING INFORMATION
  • Acyclovir is a synthetic nucleoside analogue active against herpes viruses. Acyclovir ointment USP 5% is a formulation for topical administration. Each gram of acyclovir ointment USP 5% contains 50 mg of acyclovir in a polyethylene glycol (PEG) base.
  • Acyclovir is a white, crystalline powder with the molecular formula CHNO and a molecular weight of 225. The maximum solubility in water at 37u00b0C is 2.5 mg/mL. The pka's of acyclovir are 2.27 and 9.25.
  • The chemical name of acyclovir is 2-amino-1,9-dihydro-9-[(2-hydroxyethoxy)methyl]-6-purin-6-one; it has the following structural formula:
  • No data
  • Two clinical pharmacology studies were performed with acyclovir ointment USP 5% in immunocompromised adults at risk of developing mucocutaneous Herpes simplex virus infections or with localized varicella-zoster infections. These studies were designed to evaluate the dermal tolerance, systemic toxicity, and percutaneous absorption of acyclovir.
  • In 1 of these studies, which included 16 inpatients, the complete ointment or its vehicle were randomly administered in a dose of 1-cm strips (25 mg acyclovir) 4 times a day for 7 days to an intact skin surface area of 4.5 square inches. No local intolerance, systemic toxicity, or contact dermatitis were observed. In addition, no drug was detected in blood and urine by radioimmunoassay (sensitivity, 0.01 mcg/mL). The other study included 11 patients with localized varicella-zoster infections. In this uncontrolled study, acyclovir was detected in the blood of 9 patients and in the urine of all patients tested. Acyclovir levels in plasma ranged from <0.01 to 0.28 mcg/mL in 8 patients with normal renal function, and from <0.01 to 0.78 mcg/mL in 1 patient with impaired renal function. Acyclovir excreted in the urine ranged from <0.02% to 9.4% of the daily dose. Therefore, systemic absorption of acyclovir after topical application is minimal.
  • In clinical trials of initial genital herpes infections, acyclovir ointment USP 5% has shown a decrease in healing time and, in some cases, a decrease in duration of viral shedding and duration of pain. In studies in immunocompromised patients mainly with herpes labialis, there was a decrease in duration of viral shedding and a slight decrease in duration of pain.
  • In studies of recurrent genital herpes and of herpes labialis in nonimmunocompromised patients, there was no evidence of clinical benefit; there was some decrease in duration of viral shedding.
  • Acyclovir ointment USP 5% is indicated in the management of initial genital herpes and in limited non- life-threatening mucocutaneous Herpes simplex virus infections in immunocompromised patients.
  • Acyclovir ointment USP 5% is contraindicated in patients who develop hypersensitivity to the components of the formulation.
  • Acyclovir ointment USP 5% is intended for cutaneous use only and should not be used in the eye.
  • No data
  • In the controlled clinical trials, mild pain (including transient burning and stinging) was reported by about 30% of patients in both the active and placebo arms; treatment was discontinued in 2 of these patients. Local pruritus occurred in 4% of these patients. In all studies, there was no significant difference between the drug and placebo group in the rate or type of reported adverse reactions nor were there any differences in abnormal clinical laboratory findings.
  • Observed During Clinical Practice:
  • Overdosage by topical application of acyclovir ointment USP 5% is unlikely because of limited transcutaneous absorption (see ).
  • Apply sufficient quantity to adequately cover all lesions every 3 hours, 6 times per day for 7 days. The dose size per application will vary depending upon the total lesion area but should approximate a one-half inch ribbon of ointment per 4 square inches of surface area. A finger cot or rubber glove should be used when applying acyclovir ointment USP 5% to prevent autoinoculation of other body sites and transmission of infection to other persons. n
  • Each gram of Acyclovir Ointment USP 5% contains 50 mg acyclovir in a polyethylene glycol base. It is supplied as follows:
  • Store at 20u00b0-25u00b0C (68u00b0-77u00b0F) [see USP Controlled Room Temperature]. Store in a dry place.
