I took 2 pills twice daily for one day but my fever blisters have not gotten better. It has been one week. Should I take a maintenance dose?

They absolutly turn me in to a hermet. I get any were from 4-6 a year and they drive me insane. I have just recently started taking Valtrex 500mg for this curent fever blister on about day 3-4 of the blister. In one night of 1000mg it seems that it looks as if it was on about day 10 it takes about two weeks normaly to heel so I just want to thank god for Valtrex.

I use denovir but it has seemed to stop working. My lips are covered in fever blisters and I just can’t stop stressing which may have caused them in the first place. I just want to lock myself in a room and cry. I have never felt like I look like such a monster…Thanks for the advice.

TMS: Get your doctor to give you a prescription. It is one of the best things I ever did. I used to get cold sores all the time, and now I don’t even remember the last time I had one. If I ever feel that tingle that lets me know one is starting, I start taking Valtrex and the tingling stops after awhile – and the cold sore doesn’t develop or it only becomes a very small insignificant one.

Some years back my internist prescribed Zovirax–I took up to 5 a day to PREVENT cold sores. Then Valtrex came out, and he put me on one a day. I went many years without a cold sore or even a hint of one. Then I moved 400 miles away, started getting cold sores again, and my doctor in the new town refuses to prescribe Valtrex, because it’s “off label” and she won’t do off label prescriptions. So once again I’m suffering with horrible, painful cold sores that start 5 days before my period, and by they time they’re completely healed up, the month is up and another one starts to appear. And I’ve tried ALL the topical creams, putting them on at the first sign of a sore, and they do not work. They especially don’t work when a “stealth” blister appears–you know, the ones that sneak up without the telltale tingling warning? I miss my daily Valtrex.

Since Zovirax cream was first marketed for genital herpes, I’ve carried it to control outbreaks of my oral herpes. Six months ago blood tests showed my several months-long fatigue and fevers were due to a recent “primary” infection of mononucleosis, another herpes family virus. Since I had mono more than 20 years ago (also diagnosed by a blood test), I didn’t know I could be re-infected, much less acquire what showed as an initial case of mono. I was treated with Valtrex, first two grams daily, then one gram daily as a maintenance dose. I am continuing the maintenance dose, because I’m very happy at the change in my life. No fever blisters, no low grade fevers, no recurrent fatigue.
