you will have ob's even while on suppressive therapy. it's just been pure luck that you haven't had any in the last 4 years actually!!!!
valacyclovir and valtrex are the exact same medication.

Thank you so much. I'm so shocked to realize how lucky I've been. Wow, I hope it continues and it's similar for others.
Much appreciation, Grace, for your expertise.
Cheers!
Hi again,
Good also to learn Valtrex and Valacyclovir are the same, thank you. Grace, I was just reading up on it and it said to not take with alcohol, or at least to reduce my alcohol.
I was in a bit of a funk when I was recently laid of my job and I did some excess drinking for a couple weeks. I am certain now that could have attributed to my outbreak, but I am curious how alcohol consumption does reduce the effects of not only Valtrex but of anti-depressants too.
Does alcohol affect your immune system and make you more vulnerable?
Thanks again for your help.
if alcohol was an issue with herpes antivirals, I would not be nearly as pleasant in my replies to posters ;)
Thanks!! I love your humour!!
