Indications & Clinical Uses

  • Zovirax cream is used to treat outbreaks of cold sores (herpes labialis) and genital herpes caused by the herpes simplex virus. It works by interfering with viral replication, helping the body clear the infection faster. Apply at the first sign of symptoms for best results.

Side Effects

  • When applied as directed, Zovirax cream may reduce the duration and severity of herpes outbreaks. Some users report mild stinging or burning at the application site, which usually subsides quickly. Avoid touching the affected area to prevent spreading the virus.

Precautions & Warnings

  • Wash hands before and after applying Zovirax to avoid spreading the virus. Do not use on broken or severely irritated skin. Avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes. If irritation occurs, discontinue use and consult a healthcare provider.

Avoid Interactions

  • Zovirax cream has minimal systemic absorption, so interactions with other medications are unlikely. However, avoid using other topical treatments on the same area unless directed by a doctor. Keep the treated area clean and dry to support healing.
