Pills Used To Treat Herpes

I suffer from Herpes and get monthly blisters on my upper lip. Can Purbac treat this condition successfully? ## No, this is an antibiotic that is used to treat various types of bacterial infections, however, herpes is caused by a virus, so an antibiotic will not help with it. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash, and diarrhea. There are antivirals that can help lessen the frequency of your outbreaks, so you may want to consult your doctor about trying one. Are you on any other medications? It is not common to experience monthly outbreaks, without some sort of trigger.

My wife was prescribed this medicine for use after seeing the dentist. She got a lot of stomach aches and now her lips have developed a rash that hurts. What can we do? She stopped using it for about seven days now. The stomach ache has stopped but the rash on the lips are still there and not going away. She went to the pharmacist and they said to drink lots of water. Any suggestions please? ## Hello, Micah! How are you and your wife? A rash on the lips like that is usually due to a herpes simplex virus, which is easy to catch and nothing to really worry about, it should clear up on its own after a couple weeks. However, there is no cure and it will likely recur a couple of times a year. While the rash is still active, she should see her doctor to have a culture done to confirm if that...

This gel is heaven sent for cold sores/herpes Simplex or veneral herpes. It give the same wonderful relief to both herpes. Applied to red ant bites it stops the festering . Applied to mosquitos bits it takes the sting out and reduces the size of the welts. Like others I have not been able to purchase at local drug stores. Where can I order on line in quantities of 10 or more. This is a product you want to share with young families and the older folks. ## I'd recommend being careful about using on an area of the body for which it is not intended. Doing so may lead to some possible serious adverse reactions and/or yeast infections. To treat genital issues, it is best and safest to stick with a product that is specifically formulated to be used in those areas. Learn more herpes details...

My doctor prescribed me valacyclovir.I took the full dose (2 pills in AM, 2 pills in PM of same day.) That was yesterday. My mouth sore is bigger! I have amoxtrk 875=125 as well as ayclovir 800mg (6 pills) Can I take either of these two prescriptions considering that I took valacyclovr yesterday? I really need this mouth sore to disappear asap!!! ## Hello, Jill! How are you doing? Both Valacyclovir and Acyclovir are only effective against the herpes simplex virus that causes cold sores and, once you've already gotten a cold sore, that initial dose you took on the first day is enough. Taking more by adding the Acyclovir will not do anything, nor will it help it to heal up any faster. Basically, once you have the cold sore, you have the cold sore and the only thing that's going to...
