Famciclovir (Generic Famvir)

Famciclovir 125 mg is an antiviral medicine used to treat herpes infections such as cold sores, genital herpes, and shingles. It works by stopping the virus from multiplying, which helps the skin heal faster and reduces pain, itching, and discomfort. Taking it at the first sign of symptoms can help shorten the outbreak and make it less severe. It is usually taken for a few days as prescribed. This medicine helps control symptoms, supports recovery, and reduces how much the infection affects your daily routine.
