blessedlifeI am on cyclorsporine following a kidney and pancreas transplant but have taken Valtrex for many years as prophylaxis and would like to continue it or something similar as prophylaxis. Are these okay to take together or is there a better option that would provide the same effect?
What is the severity of or chance of interaction of Valtrex with cyclosporine?

It is fine to take cyclosporin and valtrex together - there are no serious drug interactions.
See: http://www.drugs.com/interactions-check.php
If the Valtrex is working well for you then there is no reason to change.
