I asked my mom who is a nurse and who also has herpes, she said it would be fine, just to be careful for future doses. Thank you for your response!

I accidentally took two 500mg pills of Valtrex so 1000mg total at once (I forgot I had already taken the first one). Will I be okay?

I just found out today that I have genital herpes. The outbreak is unreal. I was able to soothe it using various resources from online articles. Is the first out break always the worst? I know this sounds painful, but I found that hydrogen peroxide on the sores strings initially, but soothes it soon after application. The sores have spread to my butt, pooping is awful. AWFUL. My doctor prescribed me Valtrex, I’ve only taken one so far so I can’t say too much about it. I’ve read that L-lysine helps, so I took 1000mg of that, again too soon to see any results. I’ve been taking ibuprofen to help with the stinging, it doesn’t take it away completely, but it does help. I’ve found that drinking plenty of water reducing the stinging when I pee. Also helps to hold your lips open while you pee. I soaked in a warm bath and washed my vagina and anus with a mild soap, the bath really helped. Does anyone have any other remedies? Also if you have taken Valtrex or L-lysine does it work? How long until the sores go away? Thanks, ss
