Drug Uses
Denavir is a topical antiviral medication used for recurrent
cold sores (herpes labialis) on the lips and face in otherwise
healthy adult patients. Denavir topical may also be used for
purposes other than those listed in this medication guide.
Apply Denavir every two hours during waking
hours for four days to your cold sore with your finger or
a cotton swab. Wash hands with soap and water to prevent it
from coming into contact with your eyes or other areas; to
prevent irritation and to prevent spread of the herpes virus.
Denavir is a topical cream that is applied
externally on the lips and face. Do not apply Denavir on mucous
membranes inside the mouth, nose, genital or rectal areas.
Denavir topical is in the FDA pregnancy category B. This means
that it is unlikely to harm an unborn baby. Do not use Denavir
topical during pregnancy without first talking to your doctor.
It is not known whether Denavir topical passes into breast
milk. Do not use Denavir topical if you are breast-feeding
a baby without first talking to your doctor.
Use the missed dose as soon as you remember.
However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the
dose you missed and use only your next regularly scheduled
dose.
Serious side effects have not been reported
with the use of Denavir topical. Other less serious side effects
may be more likely to occur. Continue to use Denavir topical
and talk to your doctor if you experience: headache; local
numbness or tingling where the cream is applied; changes in
taste; rash; irritation at the application site. Side effects
other than those listed here may also occur. Talk to your
doctor about any side effect that seems unusual or that is
especially bothersome.
Store at controlled room temperature, 20?-25?C
(68?-77?) away from moisture and heat.
An overdose of Denavir topical is unlikely
to threaten life. If an excessive amount of the cream has
been used, or if the cream has been ingested, contact a poison
control left or an emergency room for advice.

treat the same area at them same time as Denavir topical,
