What is a generic medication?
Generic medications are significantly discounted copies of brand name medication that have the same active ingredients, intended use, dosage, side effects, effects, and route of administration as the original brand name medication. In other words, generic medications have the same pharmacological effects as their brand-name counterparts. Over half of all prescribed medications are for generic medications.

Famvir Overview
Famciclovir is used to treat infections caused by certain types of viruses. It treats shingles caused by herpes zoster. It also treats outbreaks of herpes simplex that cause cold sores around the mouth, sores around the anus, and genital herpes. In people with frequent outbreaks of genital herpes, famciclovir is used to help reduce the number of future episodes. Famciclovir is an antiviral drug. However, it is not a cure for these infections. The viruses that cause these infections continue to live in the body even between outbreaks. Famciclovir decreases the severity and length of these outbreaks. It helps the sores heal faster, keeps new sores from forming, and decreases pain/itching. Famvir may also help reduce how long pain remains after the sores heal. In addition, in people with a weakened immune system, famciclovir can decrease the risk of the virus spreading to other parts of the body and causing serious infections.
How to Use Famvir
Read the Patient Information Leaflet if available from your pharmacist before you start taking famciclovir and each time you get a refill. If you have any questions, ask your doctor or pharmacist. Take Famvir by mouth with or without food as directed by your doctor, usually 2 to 3 times a day. Famvir works best when started at the first sign of an outbreak, as directed by your doctor. It may not work as well if you delay treatment. The Dosage of Famvir is based on your medical condition and response to treatment. Famvir works best when the amount of drug in your body is kept at a constant level. Take Famvir at evenly spaced intervals. To help you remember, take it at the same times each day. Continue to take Famvir until the full prescribed amount is finished. Do not change your dose, skip any doses, or stop Famvir early without your doctor's approval. Tell your doctor if your condition lasts or gets worse.
