Zavisol 5% Cream – Acyclovir for Cold Sores and Herpes Relief
Description
Zavisol 5% Cream – Acyclovir for Cold Sores and Herpes Simplex Treatment
Zavisol 5% Cream contains Acyclovir 50mg/g, a nucleoside analogue antiviral agent used for the topical treatment of herpes simplex labialis (cold sores) and recurrent herpes simplex infections of the skin. Applied at the first sign of an outbreak — tingling, itching, or redness — the cream reduces the severity of lesions, shortens healing time, and relieves associated pain and discomfort.
The cream formulation is the preferred choice for daytime use: its non-greasy, fast-absorbing base applies cleanly and dries quickly without leaving a visible residue, making it comfortable for use on the lips and face during daily activities. Acyclovir inhibits viral DNA polymerase in herpes simplex virus (HSV-1 and HSV-2), blocking replication and limiting the spread of infection to adjacent tissue.
Zavisol 5% Cream is manufactured by Pharmasol and is available at Derma.pk's Cream and Ointment collection and our Essential Health Products range. As a prescription antiviral, submission of a valid prescription is required — via email: sales@derma.pk or WhatsApp: +92-320-5999650.
