Description :
Valacyclovir Hydrochloride is a white or off-white crystalline powder, which is classified as a compound that fights viruses. It's the hydrochloride salt of valacyclovir, which is a prodrug of acyclovir. It is extensively used in healthcare and pharmaceutical industries to treat viral infections like herpes simplex, herpes zoster, and varicella. Valacyclovir Hydrochloride works by inhibiting viral DNA replication, preventing the spread and growth of herpes viruses within the body. It offers higher oral bioavailability compared to acyclovir, making it a preferred choice in modern antiviral formulations. This compound is renowned for its stability in chemical terms as well as its purity and Solubility. It's suitable for the use of capsules, tablets, and oral suspension formulations. Compounds that complement it, such as Disodium Succinate as well as Ethyl Oleate, are commonly utilized in combination with Valacyclovir Hydrochloride in formulations for pharmaceuticals.
