Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Herpes / December 2004Zovirax versus Valtrex
When to a substitute MD yesterday and asked about generic forms of Valtrex and was given RX for Zovirax 200mg twice a day. 60 pills cost $15.03 and the costco Rx listed it as Acyclovir. 1g Valtrex divide in hal, once a day, 15 pills costs $113. It this a personal thing of effectiveness? Is there a place I can find the comparable effectiveness? Obviously the costs of suppression therapy is a consideration, but my experience with partner is he to want as close to 100% protection as possible. --Which I can't argue with. I do think that he needs to realize that, in essence, each act of intercourse is a also contraceptive risk and that is as close to 100% as is can be, but nothing is guaranteed. --Especially since I cannot take hormones because of my heart medication. Some things just take time to get used to. Thanks. LK By US federal law, there is no difference between a generic and it's brand name partner other than the packaging. I asked a pharmacist about generics once and he burst out laughing at me... lol Get the generic. > When to a substitute MD yesterday and asked about generic forms of > Valtrex and was given RX for Zovirax 200mg twice a day. 60 pills cost [quoted text clipped - 18 lines] > > LK > When to a substitute MD yesterday and asked about generic forms of > Valtrex and was given RX for Zovirax 200mg twice a day. 60 pills cost Erm Valtrex has no generic - its still under patent. Acyclovir (ACV) which is the drug in Zovirax is related but not the same (the body cuts out acyclovir from valaciclovir to make the active drug) > It this a personal thing of effectiveness? Is there a place I can > find the comparable effectiveness? The basic drug regime of valacyclovir was designed IIRC to match effectiveness of ACV. Its basically an ACV delivery system to allow less frequent dosing due to less loss of drug enroute to the target areas.
