In the case of recurrent infections, it is especially important to start treatment in the period preceding the appearance of the prodrugs, i.e. itching, burning, feeling tense or just after the first lesions appear.
Hascovir control is contraindicated if the patient is allergic to aciclovir, valaciclovir or any of the other ingredients of this preparation.
