Famvir for Genital Herpes

Famvir is a genital herpes medication that can prevent a full outbreak of symptoms within 24 hours. If taken when the early symptoms appear, it can prevent the painful rash, itching and blisters that this infectious skin condition causes. Famvir tablets can also be taken for the prevention of future outbreaks in patients who suffer regular outbreaks of this condition. It is known to be a particularly effective treatment for patients who are of 50 years and above.

Famvir tablets are available from euroClinix with free overnight delivery so that you can begin treatment as soon as possible. When you place an order, you will need to complete a short online consultation. This will be looked over by one of our team of doctors, who can prescribe this treatment if you are suitable to take it.

How effective is Famvir?

Famvir is a fast working medication that can prevent the symptoms of the genital herpes virus within just one day of treatment. It's important to take this medication as soon as possible, ideally within the first 24 hours of you noticing symptoms. It may be less effective if you take it for more than 72 hours after the early symptoms are felt. Lower dosages of this treatment can also be prescribed for long term use, if you experience regular outbreaks of genital herpes.

How does it work?

Famciclovir is the active ingredient used to fight genital herpes virus infections. This anti-viral medicine breaks down as it enters the body and changes into a more powerful ingredient called penciclovir. It affects the virus by blocking the reproduction of infected cells to prevent the further spread.

Who can take it?

Famvir tablets can be taken by patients for the relief and prevention of genital herpes symptoms. Famvir may not be suitable for those who are suffering from kidney disease, including kidney failure (renal failure); very severe lactose intolerance, galactose intolerance or allergies to food, dyes, or preservatives

How do I take Famvir tablets?

Famvir is at its most effective when taken at the first sign of an outbreak. Take one 250mg tablet three times per day for five days as a general course of treatment. Your prescribed dosage should not be skipped or stopped, unless advised to do so by your doctor. Long term users of this medication should take it with or without food at the same times each day.

What is the recommended dosage?

As a genital herpes treatment, Famvir is usually prescribed in 250mg tablets to be taken three times per day for an outbreak. The 250mg tablets can also be taken as a preventative medication for long term use, sometimes for as long as a year. Your most suitable dosage will be determined by your doctor.

Are there any side effects?

Famvir 250mg may cause temporary adverse effects for users such as a headache, diarrhoea, vomiting and fatigue. Although common, these side effects are mild to moderate, and in some cases, they may not occur at all. Because the lower dosages of Famvir are taken for a longer duration, your body will have time to adjust to any adverse effects from the treatment.
