Hi,

It should not take more than 3 days for acyclovir to completely out of your system after stopping it but it also depends on the dose and the duration. So, there is no reason to worry and if you are experiencing the symptoms,start taking Fexofenadine once daily for 3-5 days.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
