Acyclovir is useful for treating infections caused by HSV, herpes zoster, and for VZV infections (Whitley and Roizman, 2001). Although HCMV is relatively resistant to acyclovir, some cytomegalovirus infections have responded marginally to large doses of acyclovir, and it seems to be effective for the prophylaxis of cytomegalovirus infections in immunocompromised patients.
