Herpes or HSV treatment

Herpes, or HSV (Herpes simplex virus), is treated with antiviral tablets.

The antiviral tablets for Herpes treatment can either be ‘episodic, which means taking the tablets when there are symptoms to reduce the severity of symptoms and the length of time they are present; or treatment can be continuous, which means taking tablets daily to prevent Herpes symptoms. The doctor will discuss the treatment options with you.
