Can you take together oxycodone 5 mg for pain and valtrex (valacyclovir) for your first breakout ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: It's highly unusual for a herpes breakout to require narcotics. Start the Valtrex (valacyclovir) and you should see an improvement within a couple days. Feel better soon.
