Acic 5% Cream is specially formulated to target cold sores (herpes labialis) caused by the herpes simplex virus. This powerful antiviral cream contains the active ingredient acyclovir, which helps to reduce the replication of the virus, providing relief from pain, itching, and the formation of blisters. By acting early, Acic 5% Cream can stop cold sores in their tracks, helping you get back to feeling comfortable and confident sooner.

Key Benefits:

  • Powerful Antiviral Action: Contains acyclovir, a trusted antiviral agent that inhibits the growth and spread of the herpes virus.
  • Quick Symptom Relief: Eases the discomfort caused by itching, burning, and blistering from cold sores.
  • Fast Application: Easy-to-use topical cream that is quickly absorbed, providing targeted relief right where you need it.
  • Prevents Further Spread: Helps prevent the virus from spreading to unaffected areas of skin or other people.
  • Convenient Size: Packaged in a handy 2g tube, making it easy to carry with you for on-the-go relief.

How It Works:

Acyclovir, the active ingredient in Acic 5% Cream, is a nucleoside analogue that mimics guanosine and reduces the production of viral DNA. By inhibiting the replication of the herpes virus, it effectively limits the spread and duration of the infection, ensuring faster recovery.

Composition:

  • Active Ingredient:
    • Acyclovir (50 mg per 1 g of cream)
  • Other Ingredients:
    • Macroglycerol stearates
    • Dimethicone
    • Cetyl alcohol
    • Liquid paraffin
    • White petrolatum
    • Propylene glycol
    • Purified water

Usage Instructions:

  • Application Method:
    • Use a cotton swab to apply the cream to the affected area. Ensure the cream covers not only the visible cold sore (blisters, swelling, redness) but also the surrounding skin.
    • If applying by hand, wash your hands thoroughly before and after application to avoid spreading the virus or other infections.
  • Timing:
    • Apply the cream at the first sign of a cold sore (e.g., burning, itching, or tingling) for best results.
  • Dosage:
    • Apply 5 times a day, approximately every 4 hours, for optimal effectiveness.

Duration of Treatment:

  • Treatment typically lasts for 5 days but can be extended until the cold sores form a crust or disappear completely. Treatment should not exceed 10 days without consulting a doctor.

Important Notes:

  • Early Treatment: For the most effective results, start applying the cream as soon as symptoms like itching or burning appear.
  • Consult a Doctor: If symptoms persist beyond 10 days or if cold sores frequently recur, seek medical advice.
  • Avoid Eye Contact: Do not apply the cream to your eyes or mucous membranes.
