Genital herpes treatment

We use telemedicine technology, and U.S. licensed healthcare professionals to provide genital herpes treatments discreetly, conveniently, and inexpensively.
It starts with your online visit. Your doctor or nurse practitioner needs to know about your health (e.g., your medications, lifestyle issues, prior surgeries) and how genital herpes affects you.

They also need personal ID to know who they will be helping in the coming year. They review everything, determine if you're a candidate for telemedicine, and, if so (most people are), they will craft a personalized treatment plan.
Their treatment plan will include a great deal of information about genital herpes. It is crucial that you take the time to read it all. You will be better prepared to manage your condition as a partner and not just as a patient.

If you qualify, your doctor or nurse practitioner will provide a diagnosis and prescribe the right course of treatment to help you take control of herpes outbreaks.

Our healthcare professionals prescribe valacyclovir (generic Valtrex) to treat genital herpes. This medication can help prevent and clear up herpes outbreaks when used correctly.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

Genital herpes medication is available, and it works extremely well. But it requires you to dedicate the time to learn about your condition and work with your physician or nurse practitioner to craft the ideal, personalized treatment plan.

When you do, you'll be able to identify the first indication of your specific symptoms (prodrome) and use your medication to shorten or stop the outbreak from occurring.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

What follows is a partial summary and does not include every side effect possible.

Common side effects include headache, feeling sick, dizziness, vomiting, diarrhea, skin reaction after exposure to sunlight (photosensitivity), rash, or itching (pruritus).

Uncommon side effects include feeling confused, seeing or hearing things that aren't there (hallucinations), feeling very drowsy, tremors, or feeling agitated, shortness of breath (dyspnea), stomach discomfort, rash, sometimes itchy, hive-like rash (urticaria), low back pain (kidney pain), blood in the urine (hematuria), reduction in the number of blood platelets which are cells that help blood to clot (thrombocytopenia), reduction in the number of white blood cells (leucopenia), increase in substances produced by the liver

Rare side effects include unsteadiness when walking and lack of coordination (ataxia), slow, slurred speech (dysarthria), fits (convulsions), altered brain function (encephalopathy), unconsciousness (coma), confused or disturbed thoughts (delirium), kidney problems where you pass little or no urine. Lastly, watch out for a severe allergic reaction (anaphylaxis). These are rare in people taking Valtrex. Anaphylaxis is marked by the rapid development of flushing, itchy skin rash, swelling of the lips, face, neck, and throat-causing difficulty in breathing (angioedema), fall in blood pressure leading to collapse. If any of these occur, get emergency treatment immediately

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

Yes. Suppose a physician has diagnosed your genital herpes. In that case, our healthcare professionals can prescribe medication and help you dial in the most effective treatment plan for your unique needs.

Healthcare professionals on the Dapper platform use telemedicine technologies to treat you the same way they treat patients in person. Doctors ask you questions to evaluate your symptoms and ensure it's safe and appropriate to prescribe medication. The healthcare professionals on the Dapper platform use your answers to assess your condition and create a treatment plan. That's why it's vital that you answer each question to the best of your knowledge and ensure that every communication with your physician and nurse practitioner is truthful, accurate, and thorough.

No. But you do need to have your genital herpes previously diagnosed by a physician.

Though they infect different body parts, cold sores (oral herpes) and genital herpes are caused by the same virus. Two strains of the herpes virus-cold sores are more frequently caused by HSV-1, while genital herpes is more commonly associated with HSV-2. Both strains of the virus can be effectively treated using the same medication.

Your online visit costs $15. This doesn't include the cost of your medication (if prescribed). If a physician or nurse practitioner determines you're not a good candidate for telemedicine, you'll get a full refund for your online visit.

Our services are not covered by insurance, but the $15 online visit is less than most co-pays.

If prescribed, the cost of treatment depends on the type of medication and the number of doses you receive. Check out the current Dapper Pharmacy Network prices. Prices at your local pharmacy may vary and are often twice the cost of the Dapper Pharmacy Network.

You're only charged for the medication after a physician or nurse practitioner has approved a personalized treatment plan. If you're unsuitable for telemedicine, you'll be refunded for your online visit ($15).
