4. Toxicity of Acyclovir
Aciclovir may cause nephrotoxicity (crystallization of aciclovir within renal tubules, elevation of serum creatinine, transient), and neurotoxicity (coma, hallucinations, lethargy, seizures, tremors). Nephrotoxicity and neurotoxicity usually resolve after cessation of aciclovir therapy. However, there is no well-defined relationship between aciclovir concentrations in the blood and these adverse effects.

7. Uses of Acyclovir
Acyclovir is a commonly-used antiviral drug and is used for the treatment of herpes simplex virus infections. It is commonly marketed as tablets (200 mg, 400 mg, 800 mg and 1 gram), topical cream (5%), intravenous injection (25 mg/mL) and ophthalmic ointment (3%). It can be used especially against herpes.
Aciclovir (INN) or acyclovir is a synthetic deoxyguanosine analog and it is the prototype antiviral agent that is activated by viral thymidine kinase. The selective activity of aciclovir is due to its affinity for the thymidine kinase enzyme encoded by HSV and VZV.
8. Production of Acyclovir
(1)After Guanine trimethylsilyl and then react with 2-benzyloxyethoxy methyl chloride. Then remove the benzyl group to give acyclovir. The yield is 24%. The detailed steps are as follows:
(2)N, N'-diacetyl guanine and 2-oxa-butanediol diacetate in dimethyl sulfoxide can be used to manufacture the Acyclovir.
