New Product - Zovirax Duo Cold Sore Cream

Aciclovir/hydrocortisone (Zovirax Duo Cold Sore Cream) combines the antiviral activity of aciclovir and the anti-inflammatory action of hydrocortisone. Zovirax Duo Cold Sore Cream is indicated for the treatment of recurrent herpes labialis (cold sores), when applied at the first signs or symptoms of a recurrence, to reduce the progression of cold sore episodes to ulcerative lesions and to shorten the healing time of ulcerative lesions in immunocompetent adults and adolescents (12 years of age and older). Zovirax Duo Cold Sore Cream is contraindicated in patients with known history of hypersensitivity to aciclovir, valaciclovir or hydrocortisone; in skin lesions caused by any viruses other than herpes simplex, or for fungal, bacterial or parasitic skin infections. Zovirax Duo Cold Sore Cream (aciclovir 5% w/w, hydrocortisone 1% w/w) is available in a tube of 2 g.
