"Dr. ordered tests, which revealed Epstein Barr, Parvovirus, and Herpes Virus (forgot the number). He put me on 500 mg, 3 times a day. I’ve only been on it for three months, so I don’t know effectiveness. I had genital herpes outbreaks fifteen years ago for about a year, but none since. I started the medication and had severe headaches that went away after three weeks. No other side effects."

"Famvir works the best. I have a lot less breakouts, and when one is coming on, I take it, and it is gone within a day. I don't have any side effects like I did with the others (headaches and breakouts). It is worth the money."
