Buy Zovirax Cream

Ok. Now I explain you how it works.

Zovirax acyclovir cream contains the active ingredient acyclovir, which is an antiviral medicine. It is used to treat skin infections with the herpes simplex virus, for example cold sores and genital herpes (caused by herpes simplex virus types 1 and 2). (NB. Acyclovir cream is also available without a brand name, ie as the generic medicine.)

Acyclovir works by stopping the herpes simplex virus from reproducing and infecting more cells.

Acyclovir is converted to a more active form inside cells of the body that are infected with herpes simplex. The activated acyclovir then works by blocking the action of a viral enzyme called DNA polymerase.

The herpes virus needs the DNA polymerase enzyme to copy its genetic material from RNA to DNA. This process is necessary for the virus to multiply and continue to survive. By blocking the action of DNA polymerase, acyclovir prevents the herpes virus from multiplying. This controls the infection and helps the immune system to deal with it.

For recurrent infections acyclovir cream is most effective if treatment is started as soon as the first signs of the infection begin to reappear.
