Herpes treatment gel - how we can help you
This confidential service is for people who already know that they suffer from herpes and want to have medication ready
for their next herpes episode. If you can't recognise the symptoms of a herpes episode, this gel is unlikely to be of great
use. We also offer a herpes treatment multipack.
Herpes treatment gel - how the service works
Register online and fill in the questionnaire. If it's safe to do so, one of our doctors will then send you the herpes
gel. We'll normally dispatch your herpes cream next working day. You'll need to sign for it when it arrives. We'll give you a
full refund if it's not safe to send you your herpes treatment.
Herpes treatment gel - how to take it
The herpes gel we prescribe is an local anaesthetic that you need to apply to the area of skin suffering from herpes as
soon as you feel an outbreak coming on.
Herpes treatment gel - efficacy
While there's no cure for genital herpes, it's possible to reduce the discomfort of a herpes episode by using this
herpes gel.
Herpes treatment gel - potential side-effects
This gel can cause an allergic reaction.
Herpes treatment gel - alternative treatment options
Instead of using this cream you could take herpes treatment tablets by mouth. Someone who gets five or more herpes
attacks and year should also consider so-called suppression therapy for genital herpes. We can sometimes offer suppression
therapy off this website, so please contact us by registering online and contacting us through your online patient
record.
Herpes treatment gel - unsuitable patients
Don't request this gel if you know you're allergic to any local anaesthetic or you are not confident that you can
recognise a herpes outbreak.
