Zovirax (acyclovir) ointment is an antiviral medication used primarily to treat infections caused by the herpes simplex virus, such as cold sores (herpes labialis) and genital herpes. It works by slowing the growth and spread of the virus, helping to alleviate symptoms and promote healing. The ointment is typically applied directly to the affected area to reduce pain and speed up the recovery process.
