Contents of the pack and further information

1. What is Valganciclovir Teva and what is it used for

Valganciclovir belongs to a group of medicines that act directly to prevent the growth of viruses. In the body, the active substance of the tablets, valganciclovir, is converted to ganciclovir. Ganciclovir prevents the virus called cytomegalovirus (CMV) from multiplying and invading healthy cells. In patients with a weakened immune system, CMV can cause an infection in the body's organs. This can be life-threatening.

Valganciclovir is used

to treat eye infections caused by cytomegalovirus in adult patients with acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS). CMV infection in the eye can cause vision problems and even blindness

to prevent cytomegalovirus (CMV) infections in adults and children who have not been infected with CMV but have received a solid organ transplant from a donor who was infected with CMV.
