A member asked:
Should i take 10 or 20 x 500mg valaciclovir for recurrent herpes infection of throat and ear?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Take BHT: Butylated Hydroxytoluene (BHT) is a food preservative antioxidant. It's probably the best and cheapest anti-herpes substance there is. 2,000 mg per day in divided doses at the first sign of a herpes attack (redness, itchiness). If begun right away, the attack will usually be aborted, and will not progress to the painful vesicles. You can download a free e-book, "Wipe out Herpes with BHT."
