What is Acyclovir?

Acyclovir is a prescription antiviral medication that is used for the management and treatment of infections caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV). It is approved by the FDA to treat genital herpes and HSV encephalitis. Acyclovir can also be used off-label to treat outbreaks of cold sores, shingles (herpes zoster), and chickenpox (varicella).

It stops the spread of the virus by inhibiting the enzyme, DNA polymerase. Without this enzyme, HSV can’t replicate itself. Acyclovir cannot cure HSV, but it can help relieve symptoms and help any sores (blisters) heal quicker.
