Valtrex tablets, also known as aciclovir or valacyclovir, is an antiviral medication used to treat infections caused by the herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) and HSV-2. It is available in tablet form and is available as a generic equivalent to the brand-name version of acyclovir. The recommended dosage and administration of Valtrex tablets for the treatment of herpes infections has not been established, but it is thought to be taken once daily. The most common side effects of Valtrex tablets include headache, nausea, and vomiting. Serious side effects of Valtrex tablets include seizures, liver damage, and tendon rupture. However, Valtrex tablets may also be used to prevent or reduce the development of cancer by decreasing the amount of certain types of cells in the body. Valtrex is also used to prevent or reduce the progression of certain cancers, such as breast cancer. However, Valtrex is not an antiviral medication and does not prevent or reduce the spread of sexually transmitted diseases.

How it Works
Zovirax Cold Sore Cream contains Acyclovir and 5% Aricgelat.
Aciclovir is an antiviral drug and blocks the replication of the virus, thereby stopping the sore from spreading and stopping the symptoms.
Acyclovir is converted to its active metabolite, aciclovir by the body, within a few days. Acyclovir therefore acts as a inhibitor of the replication process and does not have any direct anti-fungal properties.
Aricgelat is absorbed and causes the cold sore to subsaldule.
Cetostearyl Alcohol, Paraffin Sprinkle Ink, and Arlacel 165 ColGallon Aciclovir are also excreted in the body after subsalting.

If you are diagnosed with the herpes virus, start the therapy as soon as possible or at the first sign of an outbreak. Your doctor may prescribe you Zovirax tablets depending on your age and medical condition. The tablets are taken orally with or without food.
Take the medication at the same times every day for maximum benefit. Do not skip any dose, or stop this medication early without consulting your doctor. Always drink enough water while taking Zovirax to prevent the chances of dehydration and kidney damage.

How often do I take suppressive treatment? You take one aciclovir 400mg tablet twice a day.
Thetreatment is continued for six to 12 months. Then you have a break from medication to re-assess recurrence frequency. Suppressive treatment may be restarted if you have further severe outbreaks. Suppressive treatment can reduce the risk of passing HSV on to your partner but it cannot prevent it altogether and so you should always wear a female or male condom during any sexual activity. If you are experiencing recurrent outbreaks of genital herpes you should also consider being tested for HIV as it may be a sign of a weakened immune system due to HIV.Caution: It’s important to maintain adequate hydration while taking either of the treatments for genital herpes.
