Honestly, I don't know either. My ex had only one outbreak and after taking valtrex for 3 months, he quit eating lots of food with arginine, no longer drinks coffee, ets sugar, pasta, anything with yeast and drinks lots of water .
I have tried lots of things and nothing works. I still eat sugar and food with yeast though.
But I learned about this vacine called VARIVAX by Merck that apparently was tested in 24 people in France and no one got outbreaks after taking it (the research was from 2005-2011). This vacine is for varicella and is available at any pharmacy, but I was wondering if anyone took it?
