If you have herpes and you can't get a perscription is there anything you can do to help an out break?

Need prescription: There are not any over the counter medications that can help with a herpes outbreak. You need to get a prescription for antiviral medication. Keeping stress low, eating a healthy diet and exercising can keep future outbreaks to a minimum is most people with herpes.
