Interactions | Zovirax

Interactions

Interactions occur mainly when Zovirax is combined with other kidney-damaging drugs. In these combinations the kidney damaging effect is increased and therefore a particularly close control of the kidney values and the largest possible fluid intake should be ensured. The drugs cimetidine, Probenecid and mycophenolate can reduce the excretion of acyclovir in the kidney and therefore lead to higher drug levels in the blood. When combined, a reduction in dose should be considered by the doctor or close monitoring should be performed.
