    Hi there are medication you can take . Valtrex is one if them. It prevents from spreading to your partner . And I believe it also prevents you from getting frequent out breaks. Some ppl take the pills for 30 days because they're sexually active.

      I understand and it's true . Its common sense.I don't know why some ppl take it for 30 days . That will mess up your organs. From side effect. It gets to some ppl heads. Some ppl don't know how to deal with it.
