Will long-term use of daily valtrex damage my stomach or kidney?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No risk, no worry: Valacyclovir (Valtrex) is very safe, with almost no side effects, even after taking it for many years. There is no significant risk of damage to your stomach, kidneys, or any other organ.
