Uses FAMVIR (famciclovir) is a prescription oral antiviral medication that is indicated for treatment of recurrent genital herpes, suppression of recurrent genital herpes, and treatment of recurrent herpes simplex virus infections (genital herpes and cold sores) in HIV-infected patients. Directions After the initial outbreak* of genital herpes, FAMVIR can be prescribed in one of three ways: Episodic treatment - your doctor treats an outbreak of genital herpes as it occurs. The usual dose of FAMVIR is one 125-mg pill, twice a day, for 5 days. if you have frequent or severe outbreaks, you take one 250-mg pill, twice a day, for up to 1 year to suppress the genital herpes virus and help to prevent outbreaks. Patients with HIV - FAMVIR is the only prescription oral antiviral therapy indicated for treating genital or orolabial herpes in people infected with HIV. In patients with herpes simplex and HIV, the dose of FAMVIR is 500 mg, twice a day, for 7 days. FAMVIR can be taken with or without food. Storage Cautions If you have kidney problems, your doctor will determine if FAMVIR is appropriate, and if so, what the right dose is for you. Interactions FAMVIR has no clinically significant interactions with cimetidine, allopurinol, theophylline, digoxin, or zidovudine (AZT). Concurrent use of FAMVIR with probenecid or other drugs significantly eliminated by active renal tubular secretion may result in increased plasma concentrations of penciclovir. FAMVIR does not contain any dyes. Side Effects FAMVIR should not be taken by patients with known hypersensitivity to the product, its components, and DENAVIR (penciclovir cream). The most commonly reported side effects include headache, nausea, and diarrhea.
