Zoylex Dt 400 Mg Tablet 10 contains aciclovir (400 mg), which has a specific mechanism of action:

• Affinity for thymidine kinase: Aciclovir is selective for virus-infected cells due to its attraction towards an enzyme called thymidine kinase (TK). This enzyme is produced by the herpes simplex virus and the varicella zoster virus.
• Inhibition of viral DNA synthesis: Once aciclovir enters the cell, cellular enzymes transform it into aciclovir triphosphate. This compound acts as a competitive inhibitor of viral DNA polymerase, stopping it from incorporating into the growing viral DNA chain and halting viral DNA replication.
