Famiciclovir is a synthetic nucleoside (guanine) analogue. The trade name of this drug is Famvir, this drug is an antiviral medication that is commonly used in the treatment of herpes zoster infection. Famciclovir acts as a barrier against herpes, stopping the spreading process of this disease. It does this by preventing the virus from penetrating into the cells, inhibiting its reproduction and its lifespan. This action of Famciclovir makes it possible for the body to fight the infective process of the virus.
The herpes zoster virus acts by imitating the bodies existing nucleoside because these viruses contain RNA and DNA and therefore in their reproductive process they use the organisms' biosyntheses material for their multiplication. This is the reason why their multiplication comes very fast. Since they are intrinsic in action the treatment of this infection with a specific antiviral therapy was a challenge to the pharmaceutical world as well as the entire medical world. This problem has been taken care of and the puzzle solved with the introduction of Famvir.

Famciclovir carries out its therapeutic effect by stopping the virus from reproducing itself and from affecting some other cells in the body.
