Acyclovir Intravenous Infusion is an antiviral medication used to treat serious infections caused by herpes viruses, including herpes simplex virus and varicella-zoster virus. It is commonly prescribed for severe or disseminated herpes infections, especially in immunocompromised patients. The infusion delivers acyclovir directly into the bloodstream for rapid action. Common side effects include nausea, headache, and kidney-related issues such as increased creatinine or renal impairment. Rarely, it may cause immune thrombocytopenia or neurological symptoms like confusion and seizures. Proper hydration and kidney function monitoring are important during treatment to minimize adverse effects.
