Valtrex for Shingles

Valtrex is an anti-viral medication used to stop the spread of shingles and effectively alleviate the associated pain. It stalls the spread of the shingles rash, reducing its severity and improving healing time. Valtrex should be taken as soon as symptoms are noticed as a simple seven-day treatment.

You can purchase Valtrex safely from OnlineClinic with free overnight delivery, so you can begin treatment as soon as possible. We offer a confidential consultation service, checked by a registered doctor, so you can be sure that this is the right treatment for you to use.

What are the benefits of using Valtrex?

Valtrex can make an outbreak of shingles significantly less painful and drawn out. Once a shingles rash starts, it usually spreads for around three days before the body manages to stop it. Valtrex can cut down the time the virus has to spread by more than a day. It can also provide relief from the pain many people experience when they have an outbreak.

How do I take it?

This anti-viral medication should be taken as soon as the first noticeable symptoms appear. The first symptoms aren't often visible, and will usually include a tingling or burning pain, a fever, chills, headaches and an upset stomach.

Two 500mg tablets should be taken three times a day with a full glass of water. This treatment should only be continued for seven days. Valtrex cannot treat the uncomfortable nerve pain that some people experience after the shingles rash disappears. Famvir may be more suitable for treating this pain. Contact our doctor for more details.

Are there Valtrex side effect?

Valtrex is generally well tolerated, but certain people may be more prone to developing side effects with this treatment than others. Some of the more common side effects that people tend to experience include headaches, nausea, abdominal pain, joint pain, dizziness and pain during periods.

If you have kidney or liver problems you shouldn't take Valtrex. Anti-viral medications aren't thought to influence the chance of a foetus developing birth defects, but pregnant or breastfeeding women may not be advised to use this treatment.
