Overview
Genital Herpes is an extremely common STD caused by the transmission of the Herpes Simplex Virus Type-2. Once acquired, individuals will experience genital ulcers (outbreaks) for the rest of their lives. The severity of genital outbreaks changes over time, with the initial episode generally being the most painful and emotionally difficult. Prescription antiviral medication (Acyclovir and Valacyclovir) helps decrease the severity and frequency of genital outbreaks. Keep meds on hand, and take what you need as soon as you need it to avoid painful outbreaks.
Genital Herpes Symptoms:
- Genital ulcers on the vagina, anus, buttocks, thighs
- Swollen or tender lymphs in the legs & groin
- Headache & pain in your joints
- Flu-like symptoms
- Pain when you pee
- Fatigue
Valacyclovir and Acyclovir are available based on patient preference and medical need
Valacyclovir and Acyclovir Antivirals
Because outbreaks vary in frequency and severity, it's important to get a personalized Episodic or Suppressive treatment plan.

What should I take to get rid of a herpes outbreak fast?
Taking antiviral medication (Valacyclovir or Acyclovir) will stop an outbreak in the early stages. Using a home remedy for genital herpes may not be as effective for early treatment as prescription herpes medication. To get rid of a sore ASAP, always take a trusted antiviral medication at the first sign of a genital herpes blister. However, sometimes the best genital herpes medicine is to change the frequency and dosage of your antiviral prescription, i.e. taking a daily suppressive dose, instead of only when symptoms start, to prevent herpes outbreaks altogether.
How quickly do these pills work?
Valacyclovir (aka Valtrex) & Acyclovir (aka Zovirax and Sitavig) are the most effective drugs on the market today for treating herpes outbreaks.
Both medications are considered equally effective for preventing outbreaks & the spread of Herpes Simplex 1 & 2 to sexual partners. The most important thing for preventing an outbreak is beginning treatment within 48 hours of feeling the first symptoms in the area you're treating (itchiness, tingling, burning, pain). The quicker you take valacyclovir or acyclovir, the less likely (if at all) you are to experience an outbreak.
Is there a daily medication I can just take that prevents outbreaks?
Yes! You can take this medication two ways: 1) Just when you feel an outbreak coming (episodic), which is a 5-day treatment that speeds up recovery and reduces the severity and length of the outbreak but does not reduce your risk of getting an outbreak nor spreading the virus to your partners, or 2) Everyday (suppressive), which can reduce your risk of an outbreak by at least 70-80%, and reduce your risk of spreading the virus to sexual partners down to 1% of the time.
Will this really help? I seem to be getting more frequent outbreaks.
If you find that one medication & dose isn't working as well as you'd like, please let our doctor know and they'll recommend either 1) trying a different medication, 2) a higher dose, or 3) both.
Do you require a herpes test for treatment?
No, our doctors will be able view your information and discuss your symptoms with you. Herpes testing is an antibody test and many patients experiencing first outbreaks will not test positive. Most physician (in-person and through telemedicine) do not require a positive test for treatment.
