Antiviral Treatment Services at Chelsfield Pharmacy

Viral infections can cause discomfort, disrupt daily activities, and sometimes lead to serious health complications. At Chelsfield Pharmacy, we offer expert antiviral treatment services to help manage various viral conditions, reduce symptoms, and speed up recovery. Our goal is to provide effective, accessible, and professional care for patients in Orpington and beyond.

What Are Antivirals?

Antiviral medications are designed to target specific viruses, preventing their replication and reducing the severity of symptoms. Unlike antibiotics, which treat bacterial infections, antivirals are tailored for viral infections such as cold sores, influenza, shingles, and herpes infections.
