Zovirax Reviews

Show: for
Working / Worked
Just started
Acyclovir worked until Valtrex came along, and I prefer Valtrex. With the stress I have in my life, I NEED to take it everyday! Btw, NO side effects from Zovirax OR Valtrex.
It actually started to work right away. The only side effects I had was upset stomach if I did not eat and tiredness.
I took this stuff in Cambodia and Thailand. It work to relieve symptoms, it is not a cure.... You have to be consistent.
Seems to be working. No known outbreaks, taking it daily to stop any outbreaks before they start.
It helps a lot...
It also helps if you take it same time of the day daily.
Working / Worked
Seems to help shorten the length of the blisters takes away the pain and itching to a bearable level.
Really helps clear up an outbreak fast! I definitely recommend the cream over the gel type stuff though, stays better
It helped speed the process the first few times I had outbreaks but now my body seems to heal itself within a weeks time even without the medication so I figure it's better for my body just to ride it out. I dont take it anymore...
This has probably been the biggest thing that has helped less my symptoms I was in a constant state of flare almost with very server problems this has lessened the flares and lessed the effects when I did flare
