ZOVIRAX® (acyclovir) Cream 5% is a prescription antiviral that goes straight to the recurrent cold sore. ZOVIRAX Cream offers you flexibility—you can use it at any stage of a cold sore, including the tingle—because the acyclovir in ZOVIRAX Cream specifically targets the cells that have been invaded by the herpes simplex virus (HSV-1).
Put ZOVIRAX Cream To Work On Your Next Recurrent Cold Sore
Once ZOVIRAX Cream gets into the cells that have been infected by HSV-1, it stops the virus from copying itself, causing shorter outbreaks. That's how you know ZOVIRAX Cream goes to work right at the source. Keep in mind, ZOVIRAX Cream is not a cure for herpes, but it may lessen the duration of pain and shorten the length of your cold sore outbreak.
