Valtrex is an antiviral medicine that contains the active substance valaciclovir. It is used to treat infections with herpes, including varicella zoster which causes shingles and herpes simplex viruses (HSV) which can cause cold sores or genital herpes.
Valaciclovir is a simple, everyday antiviral that helps calm down stubborn viruses like cold sores and shingles. Think of it as a buffer—it won’t erase the virus, but it can shorten flare-ups and ease pain or itching so you feel more like yourself sooner.
- Take it exactly as directed, usually for a short course, and drink plenty of water.
- Common side effects are mild (headache or tummy upset); serious reactions are rare.
