Valcyte (Valganciclovir Oral) 50mg/1ml online
Valcyte (Valganciclovir Oral) is an antiviral medicine. It is used to treat or prevent infections caused by certain kinds of viruses. It is commonly used to treat and prevent cytomegalovirus (CMV) infections of the eye and body. Valcyte treats cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection of the eye in adults with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Valcyte also prevents CMV infection in adults and children who have received an organ transplant (heart, kidney, or kidney-pancreas).
Valcyte will not cure CMV but it can help control the infection. Valcyte is not for treating CMV that a baby is born with. Valcyte may also be used for purposes other than those listed in this medication guide. Your doctor may have switched you from ganciclovir (Cytovene) to Valcyte. The strength of these two medications is different. A Valcyte tablet contains more medicine than a ganciclovir capsule. You may not need to use as many Valcyte tablets as you did ganciclovir capsules. Take only the number of Valcyte tablets your doctor has prescribed.
Valganciclovir comes as a tablet and as an oral solution (liquid) to take by mouth. It is usually taken with food once or twice a day. To help you remember to take valganciclovir, take it around the same time(s) every day. Follow the directions on your prescription label carefully, and ask your doctor or pharmacist to explain any part you do not understand. Take valganciclovir exactly as directed. Do not take more or less of it or take it more often than prescribed by your doctor.
