Indications & Clinical Uses

  • Zovirax Duo is used to treat cold sores caused by the herpes simplex virus. The combination of aciclovir and hydrocortisone helps shorten healing time and relieve symptoms like pain, itching, and swelling. It is not a cure but may reduce the duration of outbreaks when applied early.

Side Effects

  • The cream works by slowing viral growth while hydrocortisone reduces redness, swelling, and itching. Users often notice reduced discomfort within a few days of consistent application. Some may experience mild skin dryness or irritation at the application site.

Precautions & Warnings

  • Avoid applying to broken or infected skin. Do not use on eyes, mouth, or mucous membranes. Wash hands before and after use. If irritation develops, discontinue use and consult a healthcare provider. Keep out of reach of children.

Avoid Interactions

  • No known significant drug interactions are reported with topical use. Avoid combining with other skin treatments unless directed. If using other medications on the same area, allow sufficient time between applications. Consult a pharmacist for concerns about concurrent use.
