Product informations

Prevention of herpes simplex virus infections in immunocompromised subjects.

In immunocompetent subjects:

Skin or mucosal infections :

  • Treatment of severe cutaneous or mucosal herpetic infections (excluding neonatal herpes and severe herpetic infections in immunocompromised children) (generally primary infections), particularly genital herpes and acute herpetic gingivostomatitis.
  • Due to its mode of action, acyclovir does not eradicate latent viruses. After treatment, the patient will therefore remain exposed to the same frequency of recurrences as before.
  • Treatment of recurrent genital herpes.
  • Prevention of herpes simplex virus infections in subjects with at least 6 recurrences per year.

Ophthalmological infections :

Prevention of recurrent HSV ocular infections :

  • Epithelial keratitis after 3 recurrences per year or in case of known triggering factor.
  • Stromal keratitis and kerato-uveitis after 2 recurrences per year.
  • In case of eye surgery.
  • Treatment of HSV keratitis and kerato-uveitis.
