Aciclovir belongs to a group of medicines called antivirals, which work by reducing viral infections. For most people, genital herpes is caused by the varicella-zoster virus.
This group of medicines can be used to reduce the severity and duration of symptoms of genital herpes infection, as well as to treat outbreaks of the virus. In addition, it's used to reduce the risk of spreading the virus to other people. However, these medicines may cause similar side effects such as headache, nausea, and diarrhoea.
You should not take Aciclovir if you are pregnant because there is a risk of low birth weight and increased risk of pre-term delivery. You should not use if you have kidney problems or kidney disease, diabetes, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, have had a stroke, or conditions that increase the risk of getting certain cancers such as breast or endometrial (menstrual) cancer.
