Herpes Treatment Options
|
Currently, there is no treatment to cure herpes; however, there is no cure for any virus at this point. There are three medications approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) that are available for the treatment of herpes:
All three drugs are approved for daily, suppressive therapy to help reduce the frequency of outbreaks. Zovirax is also available in the form of an ointment, but the medication has been proven to be much more effective when taken orally. According to the manufacturers, the most common short-term side effects reported were nausea and headaches. These medications have never been noted to cause any long-term side effects. You can speak to your doctor about the proper medications for you. Over-the-counter creams and/or ointments are not recommended for genital herpes. |
