Valtrex slows the growth and spread of the herpes virus to help the body fight the infection. Valtrex is used to treat infections caused by herpes viruses, including genital herpes, cold sores, and shingles (herpes zoster) in adults. Valtrex will not cure herpes and will not prevent you from spreading the virus to other people. However, this medicine can lessen the symptoms of an infection.So it will SLOW the growth of the virus and LESSEN the symptoms of an infection. I'm glad I'm not her.
Poor lady. No good deed goes unpunished.
