Valgacel 450mg Tablet is an antiviral medication containing valganciclovir, used to treat and prevent cytomegalovirus (CMV) infections. CMV is a common virus that can cause serious eye infections and vision loss in people with weakened immune systems, particularly those with AIDS. This medicine is also used to prevent CMV infection in patients who have received an organ transplant from a donor with CMV.
Valganciclovir works by converting into ganciclovir in your body, which then stops the virus from multiplying and spreading. It is an effective treatment for CMV retinitis (eye infection) and helps protect transplant patients from developing CMV disease. Your doctor will determine the right dose based on your age, weight, kidney function, and medical condition.
Key points
Valgacel 450mg Tablet contains valganciclovir, which is rapidly converted by your liver into ganciclovir after you take it. Ganciclovir works by blocking the virus's ability to copy its own DNA, which is necessary for the virus to survive and multiply. By stopping viral DNA synthesis, ganciclovir prevents cytomegalovirus from spreading in your body and helps reduce the risk of serious complications like blindness from CMV eye infection.
