Hi Product Hunt fam! Did you know that 1 in 2 U.S. adults have oral herpes, and 1 in 6 have genital herpes? But even though this viral infection is widespread and almost entirely harmless, unnecessary stigma surrounds herpes, and people who experience outbreaks may not want to discuss it (even with their doctors). I’m excited to announce that Nurx now offers herpes treatment from home! Nurx wants to make it more private and convenient for people with herpes to get effective medical treatment, so we now prescribe valacyclovir (generic Valtrex) to people who have previously been diagnosed with oral or genital herpes. Depending on your needs you can take valacyclovir for outbreaks only (take the medication when you feel an outbreak coming on) or for daily prevention (take a dose every day to reduce the chance of an outbreak). As a Nurx patient you can message our medical team any time, on your schedule, to ask questions or get advice about your herpes treatment. Plus we bill insurance if you have it (but offer affordable pricing if you don’t). I’m happy to answer any questions and would love to get your feedback. Happy hunting!
