About VALNICHE TABLET 450MG

VALNICHE TABLET 450MG belongs to the class of antiviral medication which is used to treat viral infections. It plays a vital role in treating cold sores (an inflamed blister in or near the mouth caused by infection with the herpes simplex virus), genital herpes (A common sexually transmitted infection marked by genital pain and sores), and herpes zoster (a viral infection that causes a painful rash). VALNICHE TABLET 450MG does not cure herpes but instead does not allow the infection to spread and treat its symptoms.

VALNICHE TABLET 450MG contains valacyclovir, which is an antiviral medication. VALNICHE TABLET 450MG is used in treating viral infection by preventing the multiplication of viruses in human cells. As a result, this stops the proliferation of viruses and produces new viruses, slowly leading to the viral infection clearing up.

VALNICHE TABLET 450MG is taken with or without food in a dose and duration as advised by the doctor. Your dose will depend on your condition and how you respond to VALNICHE TABLET 450MG. Sometimes, you may experience headaches, dizziness, feeling sick (nausea or vomiting), diarrhoea, and skin sensitivity to sunlight. Most of these side effects of VALNICHE TABLET 450MG are temporary, do not require medical attention, and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor.

Consume only if the doctor prescribes you. Never encourage self-medication or suggest your medicine to someone else. Do not take VALNICHE TABLET 450MG if you are allergic to VALNICHE TABLET 450MG, valacyclovir, or any of its ingredients. Check with your doctor if you're pregnant, breastfeeding, or taking other prescribed or non-prescribed medicines. Use protection while having sexual intercourse to avoid the transfer of genital herpes (a sexually transmitted disease) to your partner. If you have a weak immune system, please inform your doctor before taking VALNICHE TABLET 450MG as a dose adjustment may be required.
