Guest guest Posted February 8, 2006 Report Posted February 8, 2006 I personally don't know but can you call the pharmasist and ask? this may not help much but when I spoke to a Hopewell pharmasist regarding valtrex he said he would recommend acyclovir besides valtrex. I would think they would know since they study the drugs ??? acyclovir vs. valtrex My doc is suggesting switching me to acyclovir from valtrex because myinsurance is currently refusing to pay for more than 45 days worth ofvaltrex. What should I expect if I make this change?Thanks! Quote
Guest guest Posted February 8, 2006 Report Posted February 8, 2006 Maybe others can help with this, but from what I have read, Valtrex is usually preferred becasue it would take about 16 doses of Acyclovir to equal one days dose of Valtrex. > > I personally don't know but can you call the pharmasist and ask? this may not help much but when I spoke to a Hopewell pharmasist regarding valtrex he said he would recommend acyclovir besides valtrex. > I would think they would know since they study the drugs ??? > > acyclovir vs. valtrex > > > My doc is suggesting switching me to acyclovir from valtrex because my > insurance is currently refusing to pay for more than 45 days worth of > valtrex.
