Hi was diagnosed with shingles 13 days ago and was given anti viral tablets, it's been very mild and small patch so coping OK. Had to take 10 tablets a day and stupidly didn't take the last 10 as I was out and couldn't fit them in equally. Today starting to feel really achy and off again. Can I just take the last 10 or will they not work this late into the virus

yes take them! i have stopped and started a million times. its not like an antibiotic where you cant miss a day, i am sure it may not work 100% like it would had they been taken correctly but they will still do the job and if they dont then ask for a refill good luck!
