It is also used to treat repeat outbreaks of herpes virus cold sores or fever blisters in people with a normal immune system.Famciclovir is used to treat repeat outbreaks and to prevent further outbreaks of genital herpes (a herpes virus infection that causes sores to form around the genitals and rectum from time to time) in people with a normal immune system. Famciclovir is also used to treat returning herpes simplex infections of the skin and mucous membranes (mouth anus) in people with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. Famciclovir is in a class of medications called antivirals. It works by stopping the spread of the herpes virus in the body. Famciclovir does not cure herpes infections and may not stop the spread of herpes virus to other people. However it may decrease the symptoms of pain burning tingling tenderness and itching; help sores to heal; and prevent new sores from forming.Famciclovir comes as a tablet to take by mouth with or without food. When famciclovir is used to treat shingles it is usually taken every 8 hours (three times a day) for 7 days starting within 3 days after the rash begins to appear. When famciclovir is used to treat cold sores and fever blisters it is usually taken as one dose at the earliest sign or symptom (tingling itching or burning) of a cold sore. When famciclovir is used to treat repeat outbreaks of genital herpes it is usually taken twice a day for one day starting within 6 hours of the first sign or symptom of the condition. To keep genital herpes from returning famciclovir is usually taken twice a day for up to 1 year. When famciclovir is used to treat herpes infection in people infected with HIV it is usually taken twice a day for 7 days. Follow the directions on your prescription label carefully and ask your doctor or pharmacist to explain any part you do not understand. Take famciclovir exactly as directed.

View more Prescription Drugs 7 Pharmacy: Dozens of patents for name-brand drugs are due to expire within the next 14 months, and generic drugs will replace some of the most popular and widely advertised drugs used today. For millions of people worldwide, this means switching from familiar brands like Lipitor to generic equivalents. How will this affect drug companies, and what will be the impact on people who depend on expensive prescription medication? Here, a brief guide: Which drugs are scheduled to go generic? Some real blockbusters. "In the next two years, six of the 10 top-selling drugs will lose their patents," says Chris Woolston in the Los Angeles Times. Lipitor, the world's best-selling drug, which is used to lower cholesterol, will be available as a generic in November of this year. Another best-seller, the blood thinner Plavix, will lose its patent in May 2012. Other well-known drugs with expiring patents include the arthritis treatment Enbrel, the anti-psychotic Zyprexa, as well as drugs for bipolar disorder, HIV, high cholesterol, and other conditions.
