so stressed and bummed for my daughter.
Can I give valtrex to my 9 yr old? She is 95lbs and has blisters on her lips.

It must be terribly distressing for you both. The safety and efficacy of Vatrex has not been studied in children under 12 years old. Given your daughters medical history I would seek the opinion of a pediatric skin specialist. They will help you decide whether it is appropriate to prescribe Valtrex weighing risks and benefits.
