Abstract
Acyclovir is an effective antiviral agent in herpes simplex and varicella-zoster infections treatments. However, it may cause serious side effects. This case study reports a patient who developed both acute tubular necrosis and neurotoxicity induced by intravenous acyclovir and recovered promptly after hemodialysis. Caution is needed in monitoring patients receiving acyclovir. Eliminating acyclovir with early diagnosis and immediate daily hemodialysis is necessary for successful treatment.
