I feel better now, can I stop using Yavir Eye Ointment?

No, you should not stop using Yavir Eye Ointment suddenly without talking to your doctor. This is because your symptoms may worsen and your infection may return. Remember, your symptoms may improve and you may feel better before the infection is completely cleared. Stopping the treatment too early could allow the spread of the infection and hence, prevent complete healing.

In which conditions is the use of Yavir Eye Ointment avoided?

Employ of Yavir Eye Ointment should be avoided in patients who are allergic to Yavir Eye Ointment or any of its components. However, if you are not aware of any allergy, or if you are using Yavir Eye Ointment for the first time, consult your doctor.

Does Yavir Eye Ointment prevent transmission of infection to others?

No, you can infect other people, even while you are being treated with Yavir Eye Ointment. Herpes infections are contagious, so avoid letting infected areas come into contact with other people. Avoid touching your eyes after touching an infected area. Wash your hands frequently to prevent transmitting the infection to others.
