How to use Famvir
Once the herpes virus enters the body, it cannot be completely eliminated but antiviral medications such as Famvir can help you treat it. Generally, the first outbreak of genital herpes is painful and the recurring ones are milder in nature. The sooner you start using this drug after contracting herpes, the faster recovery you are likely to make. Also, tell your doctor about all the medications that you are currently using or have used in the recent past so that the doctor can adjust your dosage accordingly.
This pill is easy to take but in order to recover faster, you need to know how to use it properly. Take this medication exactly as your doctor has recommended. Just remember that using this drug in higher or smaller doses does not speed up your recovery but can increase the risk of side effects. Start as soon as you see the first symptoms and this can give you really good results. Take a pill with a full glass of water, with or without food.
In case you experience stomach upset once you use this , ensure that you take it with food. Keep on drinking water every two hours when you are using this drug so that your kidneys stay protected from the possible side effects of this drug. You can infect other people even when you are using this medication and this is why it is advisable to abstain from sexual intercourse with other people before you are completely treated.
