Adults and children over 12 years old should take 200mg of Zovirax five times daily, at roughly four-hour intervals. Maintain this schedule for five days. Remember to take each dose with a full glass of water.
For children aged 2 to 12 years, the dosage is determined by weight. Consult your doctor or pharmacist for the correct dose; they will calculate the appropriate amount based on your child’s weight and provide specific instructions.
Always follow your doctor’s prescription precisely. Never exceed the recommended dose. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember, unless it’s almost time for your next dose. Do not double the dose to make up for a missed one.
Store Zovirax tablets at room temperature, away from moisture and direct sunlight. Keep them out of reach of children. If you experience any adverse reactions, contact your physician immediately.
