About the medication
Valacyclovir is an FDA-approved antiviral inhibitor for the treatment of herpes simplex, which is divided into two types: HSV-1 and HSV-2. Valacyclovir works by blocking the virus’s polymerase. By doing so, the drug is able to stop the herpes simplex virus from building DNA and replicating itself. This can reduce the severity of cold sore flares, as well as the ability of the virus to spread between hosts. The active ingredient of valacyclovir is valacyclovir hydrochloride.

Frequently Asked Questions on Valacyclovir
Cold sores, which is most commonly found in blisters on or around the mouth, is caused by the herpes simplex virus and is divided into two types: HSV-1 and HSV-2. They are also known as fever blisters or oral herpes.
Valacyclovir is an FDA-approved antiviral inhibitor for the treatment of herpes simplex, which is divided into two types: HSV-1 and HSV-2. Valacyclovir works by blocking the virus's polymerase. By doing so, the drug is able to stop the herpes simplex virus from building DNA and replicating itself. This can reduce the severity of cold sore flares, as well as the ability of the virus to spread between hosts. The active ingredient of valacyclovir is valacyclovir hydrochloride.
For cold sores, valacyclovir can be used as an episodic or suppressive treatment.
As an intermittent treatment, valacyclovir can be treated when the virus breaks out if treatment is started within a day of noticing symptoms.
Valacyclovir is used as a suppressive treatment and is taken daily to help suppress attacks. This is usually recommended for people who have frequent or severe relapses.
For adults treating cold sores, the typical dose of valacyclovir is 1,000 mg (2 capsules X500mg) followed by a secondary dose of 1,000 mg (2 capsules X500mg) 12 hours later.
Valacyclovir works best when taken within 24 hours of the first onset of symptoms and will lessen symptoms in about 2-3 days.
Your doctor may prescribe valacyclovir for cold sore suppression treatment. This is an off-label use of the drug, which means that the FDA has not approved valacyclovir as an inhibitory treatment for cold sores. If a doctor deems this to be the best treatment option for their patients, they can prescribe FDA-approved medications for off-label use. If you have any questions about using valacyclovir to suppress cold sores, talk to your doctor.
For viral flare treatment, patients take valacyclovir at the first sign of an attack (when you experience tingling, itching, burning, or any of the typical first symptoms) and then a second time later on the same day. Taking valacyclovir in the early stages of an oral herpes outbreak is effective in reducing the intensity of symptoms, shortening the duration of the outbreak, and reducing the chance of spreading the herpes to others.
For patients with frequent flare-ups (usually more than six per year), daily valacyclovir can be chosen as a prophylactic treatment, which can suppress oral herpes outbreaks by up to 80%. Taking valacyclovir daily can also reduce the chance of spreading herpes to others. Daily valacyclovir treatment is an FDA-approved treatment for genital herpes, but daily valacyclovir for oral herpes prevention is an "off-label" prescription. If a doctor deems an off-label prescription to be safe and appropriate, then it is legal for them to prescribe an off-label prescription.
When taken as directed by a doctor, valacyclovir is generally well tolerated. Side effects may include headache, dizziness, nausea, stomach pain, or vomiting. It is important to stay well hydrated while taking valacyclovir to avoid these symptoms. If these side effects persist or worsen, contact your doctor.
If you miss a dose for any reason, it's okay to catch up on the missed dose as soon as possible.
Valacyclovir is not an antibiotic. Valacyclovir is an antiviral drug with activity against herpes simplex virus types 1 and 2 (HSV-1 and HSV-2). Valacyclovir attacks the DNA replication process of the virus, so it only attacks the herpes virus that is trying to multiply actively. Although valacyclovir is an antiviral drug that targets active infection, it cannot fight inactive viruses and viruses that hide in the nervous system.
I've been tormented by cold sores at the corners of my mouth for over 10 years. Every time they get tired or eat something irritating, they pop up, and then the pain lasts for 10 days and half a month, which is simply unbearable. It's painful and ugly, and I can't even hide it with makeup! After trying Valacyclovir, I have to say, this medicine is amazing! I started eating them on the first day when I felt like I was going to have a seizure, and as a result, they were completely suppressed and didn't recur at all, which is amazing.
