The main difference is that Zovirax is a brand name, while Herpex is a generic name.

How to use Acyclovir cream?

 

Zovirax or Herpex 5% cream uses: This cream is intended for topical use only and should not be applied to the eyes, mouth, or vagina. It is most effective when used early, as soon as a cold sore starts. For best results, apply the cream when the first signs of cold sores appear, including redness, a bump, tingling, or itching. Wash and dry hands before and after application to prevent the spread of infection. Ensure the formulation is applied to clean and dry skin. Apply a thin layer of the medicine to cover only the affected area of the skin. Gently rub the formulation until it is completely absorbed into the skin. Apply Herpex cream five times daily. Wash your hands even after applying the cream. This should remove any cream left on the hands. Avoid unnecessary rubbing of the cold sore, as this may cause it to spread to other areas of your mouth or worsen your sore.

Generally, the topical medication should be applied to the affected area five times daily for four days. You should not apply other skin preparations to the affected area while using Aciclovir cream. Do not share the cream formulation with others, even if they experience similar symptoms. Avoid contact with eyes, nose, mouth, or vagina. If the formulation comes into contact with the eye, rinse it thoroughly with plenty of water. Do not swallow the cream. It is best to apply the formulation after eating or drinking to avoid accidental swallowing of the topical formulation. Seek immediate medical attention if you get any side effects. If you missed applying the cream, apply it when you remember. If it is nearly time for the next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dosing schedule.  

Precautions with Acyclovir cream

 

Zovirax, or Herpex 5% cream 5 gm, is contraindicated in patients who develop hypersensitivity to Acyclovir or any other component of this formulation. Generally, the cream formulation is considered safe for use during pregnancy and breastfeeding. However, it should not be used during pregnancy unless the healthcare specialist feels the potential benefits outweigh the risk of possible harm to the fetus. The safe use of this topical antibacterial in paediatric patients 18 years of age or below has not been established.

Do not use Herpex cream for a condition for which it was not prescribed. Medical advice should be sought before use if you have low immunity, cold sores in the mouth or frequent episodes of cold sores (more than four times a year). Be sure to inform your healthcare specialist if you are taking or have taken any other medications, nutritional supplements, or herbal preparations. Currently, there are no known interactions that necessitate avoiding concomitant use. Let your healthcare provider know if you develop any allergic symptoms (such as itchiness, rashes, trouble breathing, or eye swelling) or serious side effects associated with the medicine.
