How are you dosing valtrex? Would love to hear how other people dosing it too? How often, how big of a dose etc
For most applications of Valtrex, 1 gram in the morning and 1 gram at night is typically recommended.
Personally, I take twice that amount spread throughout the day, but my situation is not typical.
Some people have strong reactions and have a hard time tolerating even just 1 gram per day. These people sometimes take lower doses to avoid the unpleasant start-up effects of Valtrex. This is not officially recommended, since taking sub-optimal doses of a direct antiviral can lead to the virus becoming resistant to the drug. In these cases, it may actually be better to stop the drug altogether instead of taking a sub-optimal dose. This can be a difficult decision to make.
Hope this helps.
