Valacyclovir HCL Information:
How do I take Valacyclovir Hydrochloride?
Valacyclovir HCl is taken as a pill in various doses depending on the need and weight of the patient. It can be used in low doses in children. While taking Valacyclovir HCl, drink plenty of water to reduce the risk of side effects. Ideally, the medication will be taken at the first sign of an outbreak for full potency.

Continue taking as prescribed by a doctor, even after the symptoms have disappeared.
What if I forget to take a dose of Valacyclovir Hydrochloride?
If you forget to take a dose of Valacyclovir HCl, take the missed dose as soon remembered. If it is close to your next scheduled dose, skipped the missed dose and resume your regular dosing schedule. Do not take a double dose.
What is Valacyclovir Hydrochloride?
Valacyclovir HCl is an antiviral medication used to reduce the severity and duration of certain viral infections. It helps sores heal faster and occur less often. It can also reduce pain and itching associated with the viral. Moreover, it can reduce the occurrence of future outbreaks. However, it is not a cure for the virus, and the virus remains in the body after the symptoms have subsided.
Before taking Valacyclovir Hydrochloride, tell your doctor if:
- You are allergic to any medication, especially acyclovir
- You have any chronic diseases, especially kidney disorders
- You are pregnant or may become pregnant while taking Valacyclovir HCl or are breast-feeding
