Frequently Asked Questions
What is Lovir 400mg Tablet used for?
Lovir 400mg Tablet is used to treat infections caused by herpes simplex virus, such as cold sores and genital herpes, and varicella-zoster virus, such as chickenpox and shingles. Your doctor will confirm the specific infection it has been prescribed for.
How soon should I start taking this medicine after symptoms appear?
Aciclovir works best when started as early as possible, ideally at the first sign of tingling, pain, or a blister, so contact your doctor promptly if you notice symptoms returning.
Does this medicine cure herpes infections completely?
No, aciclovir does not eliminate the virus from the body but controls active outbreaks and reduces symptom severity and duration; the virus can remain dormant and cause future outbreaks.
Can I take this medicine to prevent future outbreaks?
Your doctor may prescribe a lower, ongoing dose as suppressive therapy if you have frequent recurrences – discuss whether this approach is suitable for you.
