Hi

Well, It all startes when i had first sex with him.
Two weeks ago i used Acyclovir -seems not work for me

So I would like to ask for some opinions, suggestions, or what people have been finding to work best.

What do you all think?

Everyone reacts differently to the meds

"Herpes viruses are known for their ability to establish lifelong, incurable infections. Treatment usually involves general-purpose antiviral drugs which reduce the infection, but are unable to completely eliminate it. The antiviral most commonly used is Acyclovir or Valacyclovir. Reducing the viral load can reduce the physical severity of outbreak-associated lesions and the amount of infected cells shed by the body, lowering the chance of transmission to others. Research has also shown that the virus's growth is to a moderate degree proportional to the ratio of the amino acid arginine to the amino acid lysine in the diet of infected individuals. Whilst this applies to viral growth in the laboratory, the Herpes Viruses Association recommends that patients who are considering adjusting their diet first test their susceptibility to the lysine/arginine balance in their bodies: avoiding arginine-rich foods for a period of time, then indulging in these foods (chocolate and nuts are prime candidates) to see if an outbreak is then triggered."

acyclovir or famcyclovir didn't work to me. and some people say acyclovir is not for herpes.

Hi

I'd just like to make a point here about herpes treatment that may interest those of you in the UK.

My husband was prone to frequent outbreaks of HSV-2 (that's genital herpes to you and I) for months, but we didn't even consider it a problem until they began causing him immense pain.

Usually with these types of problems, the doctor is the best point of call however, my husband works long hours which makes both booking and attending an appointment difficult.

In the end we decided to look on the internet for advice and found an online clinic that specialises in this sort of thing. We read about a treatment called Valtrex that can offer relief within 24 hours. It's a prescription tablet, so the website's doctor has to first agree to wirte you a prescription before you can receive the medication.


Within 1 day the medication was delivered to our home. I can say with certainty that the tablets do work and the lesions disappeared after a couple of days. For all the hassle and time wasting of seeing a doctor face-to-face, my husband says buying online is probably a better option.

Apparently, you can use different varients depending on the severity and speed at which the infection returns. Famvir and Valtrex are the market leaders, so I would choose one of the two.

Hope this helps,

Tina
