Description
Acyclovir Product Overview
Acyclovir (C8H11N5O3) is a white crystalline powder that is slightly soluble in water. It is a guanosine analogue that viral enzymes activate selectively in infected cells, which gives it a good safety profile. For injections, producers also use its sodium salt.
In addition, pharmaceutical companies use it in tablets, oral suspensions, creams, eye ointments and powders for infusion against herpes viruses. It is on the WHO Model List of Essential Medicines and remains one of the most widely used antivirals. Similarly, related antivirals in our range include Valganciclovir Hydrochloride and Entecavir 1-hydrate.
Notably, Zyntex supplies it from qualified API producers with lot-specific documentation, only to licensed pharmaceutical companies.
