I've been prescribed valtrex for the past few months. It was effective but I've had side effects such as sore throat, headache and backache. I'm on the 1st day of the cold and flu treatment and would like to see if it's possible to reduce this dosage to 1/2 a day (I'm a nurse, so I can't give up). I'm not sure why I can't swallow the tablets, I just want to know how to take them. I'm just curious how you can do this? Thanks for any help!

How it works?Aciclovir works by interfering with the body’s production of certain chemicals called nucleic acids. These nucleic acids form a complex with the nucleic acid polymer (cGMP) that allows cGMP to work in the body, leading to an increase in the amount of cGMP in the body. This results in an increase in the amount of cGMP produced, which in turn results in an increase in the amount of blood flow to the genital area. Aciclovir stops this process and the body’s production of cGMP.
