ACICLOSTAD cream can be applied at the first signs of cold sore. The typical symptoms of cold sore include tingling, itching, burning, pain, tightness and blistering. Cold sore is caused by the herpes simplex virus. This virus is widespread and almost everyone carries it, but it does not become active in all people and causes cold sores when an outbreak occurs. The causes of a new outbreak of cold sores are varied, such as a weakened immune system, cold or flu-like infection, stress, disgust, hormonal fluctuations, UV radiation and certain medications. The active ingredient aciclovir is a viral agent and is used in the treatment of certain herpes infections. ACICLOSTAD cream can somewhat reduce the duration of the disease if therapy is started early.
ACICLOSTAD cream should be applied directly at the FIRST signs of cold sore, such as tingling or burning. It is best to apply the cream thinly to the affected areas with a cotton swab.
Apply 5 times a day (every 4 hours).
You can order ACICLOSTAD cream for cold sores without prescription at arzneiprivat.
The total dose should not be exceeded without consulting a doctor or pharmacist.
How to use?
Apply the medicine to the lips and adjacent affected areas. Do not apply before eating. Avoid accidental contact with mucous membranes and eyes.
Wash your hands thoroughly after use.
Duration of use?
The duration of use depends on the type of symptoms and/or the course of the disease. General duration of treatment: 5 days. You should not use the medicine for longer than 10 days without medical advice. If symptoms persist or recur regularly, you should consult your doctor.
Overdose?
If the medicine is used as described, no overdose symptoms are known. If in doubt, consult your doctor.
As a general rule: Pay particular attention to conscientious dosing, especially with infants, small children and older people. If in doubt, ask your doctor or pharmacist about any effects or precautions.
A dosage prescribed by a doctor may differ from the information on the package leaflet. As the doctor will adjust it individually, you should therefore use the medicine according to his instructions.
