One of the factors that can affect your ability in these respects is the use of drugs due to their effects and\/or side effects. Descriptions of these effects and side effects can be found in other sections. Read all the information in this leaflet for guidance. If you are not sure, talk to your doctor or pharmacist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This medicine contains less than 1 mmol (23 mg) sodium per tablet, ie essentially ‘sodium-free’. is next to “sodium-free”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Dose one is determined individually by the physician for each patient.

In case of severe infection, long-term treatment may be necessary. The first dose should be taken as soon as symptoms appear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Preventive treatment of severe forms of frequently recurrent genital herpes – infection s in patients with normal immune systems<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n The usual dose is 2 tablets of 200 mg or 1 tablet of 400 mg twice daily every 12 hours.
