Valacyclovir Coupons & Savings Card – Discount Prices from $10.70

Valacyclovir is an antiviral medication used to treat infections caused by certain viruses, such as herpes simplex and varicella zoster. In children, it is effective against cold sores around the mouth and chickenpox. For adults, it treats shingles and cold sores, as well as genital herpes. Valacyclovir helps manage and reduce the frequency of genital herpes outbreaks in those with recurrent infections. This medication works by halting the growth of these viruses, though it does not eradicate them from the body. It aids in reducing the severity and duration of outbreaks, promoting quicker healing of sores, preventing new sores from developing, and minimizing associated pain and itching. Additionally, it may lessen the duration of pain following the healing of sores. Valacyclovir is available in tablet form but can be prepared as a suspension by a compounding pharmacy for those who have difficulty swallowing tablets. Common side effects include headache, nausea, and stomach pain. Always consult with a healthcare professional before starting or adjusting any medication regimen.
