1. Antiviral Case Study




Vera Cella is a 59-year-old patient seen in the clinic today for a painful rash that runs in a half-circle
along her rib line. The rash is composed of raised, fluid-filled lesions. The patient describes the pain as
the most severe pain she has ever experienced. The physician makes a diagnosis of shingles and gives
the patient a prescription for acyclovir (Zovirax). Vera has some questions for the nurse regarding the
disease and the medication.
