It does not remove the viruses from the body but prevents the viruses from dividing and spreading.

No, you can infect other people, even while you are being treated with Zovistar. Herpes infections are contagious, so avoid letting infected areas come into contact with other people. Avoid touching your eyes after touching an infected area. Wash your hands frequently to prevent transmitting the infection to others. You should practice safe sex by using condoms. You should not have sex if you have genital sores or blisters.
Do elderly patients need to be more careful while taking Zovistar?
Older adults (over age 65 years) tend to experience more side effects when taking Zovistar. The reason being, their kidneys do not flush the drug out of their system as quickly as a younger person’s kidneys would do. Elderly patients should drink plenty of water while taking Zovistar, and their kidney function should be monitored. These patients should be given a lower dose and should be monitored for neurological problems.
