For those that take one of the above antivirals for their MS could you post please:

-for how long you take it
-what, if any, side effects you experienced
-what dosage and/or other medications
-your outcome

Thanks in advance

Hi Dim,
I’m considering starting up on valacyclovir. The standard dosage appears to be 500 mg 2x/day.

For more info, the Prescribing Information may be helpful.
