A member asked:
Is it ok if i take a lot more valtrex (valacyclovir) pills now so they'll work faster; or will i overdose?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
NO: Never take a "lot more now" so the medicine will work faster. That will never happen. The time it takes a medicine to work is based on the intrinsic properties of the medicine itself. Taking a lot now will only put you at risk for serious side effects from too high a dose.
