At first I used valtrex that seemed to help after that I stopped getting outbreaks nothing visible anyway sometimes I feel it but anyway valtrex should help

I’m sorry you’re experiencing that, @pothos. My best advice is to really keep on top of taking your medication and if you need to, talk to your doctor about a daily med. I’m taking Valaciclovir daily now which has helped prevent my frequent outbreaks.

I've been on Valtrex for 6 years I take it as needed first sign of outbreak I take my meds. However reducing stress and being in a safe relationship I stopped having outbreaks as often

Find your triggers!! Avoid certain foods etc that set you off! And look into medication too! ❤️

To help clear up outbreaks have daily soaks in an epsom salt bath for at least 30 minutes until it's gone, aside from that you can add lysine or monolaurin vitamins to your daily suppressants to help boost your immune system. Most of what triggers outbreaks is related to your immune system, hormones, or ph balance it seems like so the healthier you are the better off you are so watch what you eat since there are some foods and drinks to avoid or moderate that you can find lists of online.
