What is this medication used for​​​?

Medovir® (Acyclovir) is an antiviral drug. It is used to treat infections caused by herpes viruses including genital herpes, cold sores, shingles and chicken pox. It slows the growth and spread of the herpes virus so that the body can fight off the infection. Acyclovir may also be used to treat other conditions.

Dosage and How to Use​

Take Acyclovir exactly as directed by your doctor. Take each dose with a full glass of water. Acyclovir can be taken with or without food. Taking Acyclovir with food may decrease stomach upset.

What to do if I missed a dose?

If you miss a dose or forget to take your medicine, take it as soon as you can. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, wait until then to take the medicine and skip the missed dose. Do not double your dose or take extra medicine to make up for a missed dose. If you have missed several doses, please call your physician to check what you should do.
