What is herpes?
Genital herpes is a common sexually transmitted infection (STI) caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV). It primarily affects the genital and anal areas but can also occur on other parts of the body, such as the mouth and lips, through oral-genital contact. Genital herpes is typically caused by herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2), although herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) can also lead to genital herpes.

What is Valacyclovir?
Valacyclovir is an oral tablet, prescription medicine that is FDA approved to treat genital herpes.
How does Valacyclovir work?
Valacyclovir belongs to a group of drugs called nucleoside analogues, which works by stopping the spread of herpes virus in the body.
What can I expect?
Valacyclovir works best if it is used within 48 hours after the first symptoms of genital herpes (pain, burning, or blisters) begin to appear. For recurrent outbreaks of genital herpes, Valacyclovir works best if it is used within 24 hours after the symptoms begin to appear. For these recurrent outbreaks, taking Valacyclovir daily instead of just during an outbreak, will greatly reduce the number of total outbreaks per year.
