Review Acyclovir's mechanism of action and side effects for nursing pharmacology.

Acyclovir is an antiviral medication that is used to treat herpes simplex virus as well as the varicella-zoster virus. A major adverse effect of acyclovir is nephrotoxicity, so questions containing patients with abnormal BUN, creatinine, and urine output should cause concern for the patient’s safety. To prevent kidney injury, make sure the infusion rate is set within the appropriate limits and make sure the patient is drinking plenty of fluids.
