Dosage:
The usual dose of Zovirax disp for adults and children over 12 years old is one 200mg tablet taken three to five times a day for seven to ten days. The tablets should be dissolved in a glass of water and taken immediately. The dosage may be adjusted based on the severity of the infection and the patient’s response to treatment.
For children under 12 years old, the dosage is determined by the child’s weight and is typically half the adult dosage. Zovirax disp should be taken as directed by a healthcare professional.
Usage:
Zovirax disp should be taken with or without food, but it is recommended to take the medication with a full glass of water. The tablet should be dissolved in water before taking. It is important to take the medication as prescribed, even if the symptoms improve before the course of treatment is complete.
If a dose is missed, it should be taken as soon as possible. If it is almost time for the next dose, the missed dose should be skipped, and the regular dosing schedule should be resumed. It is not recommended to take a double dose to make up for a missed dose.
Zovirax disp may cause side effects such as nausea, diarrhea, headache, and dizziness. If any severe side effects occur, such as difficulty breathing or swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat, medical attention should be sought immediately.
It is important to note that Zovirax disp is not a cure for herpes infections, but it can help to reduce the severity and duration of symptoms. The medication should be used as directed by a healthcare professional, and any questions or concerns about the medication should be discussed with a healthcare professional.
