herpes valtrex side effects

Valaciclovir (INN) or valacyclovir (USAN) is an antiviral drug used in the management of herpes simplex and herpes zoster (shingles). It is a prodrug, being converted in vivo to aciclovir. It is marketed by GlaxoSmithKline under the trade name Valtrex.
Valtrex can be generic. Generic valtrex side effects was very intresting, but not for us.
Generic valtrex is a prodrug that is converted by esterases to the active drug aciclovir via hepatic first-pass metabolism. Aciclovir is selectively converted into a monophosphate form by viral thymidine kinase, which is far more effective (3000 times) in phosphorylation than cellular thymidine kinase.

Valaciclovir is indicated for the treatment of HSV and VZV infections, including:
Genital herpes simplex (treatment and prophylaxis)
Reduction of HSV transmission from people with recurrent infection to uninfected individuals
Herpes zoster (shingles)
Prevention of CMV disease following organ transplantation
