Zovirax Tablets
Zovirax tablets contain Acyclovir as its main ingredient. Acyclovir is an anti-viral drug and treats herpes infection. Herpes viruses include a few other viruses which cause infections such as cold sore and chicken pox. Acyclovir does not allow these viruses to reproduce and inhibits them from infecting other cells. When Acyclovir is inside the infected cells it becomes more active and blocks the enzyme known as DNA polymerase which in turn helps in the reproduction of the viruses by copying the genetic material from the RNA strand to the DNA one.
