Valcivir-500 Tablet is an antiviral agent used in the treatment of infections caused by herpes viruses such as genital herpes, cold sores, shingles (herpes zoster infection), etc. This medicine does not cure herpes; it helps in preventing outbreaks of the infection and lessens the risk of the virus spreading to other people. It may also be used for the treatment of chickenpox (Varicella zoster infection)
