Online Cold Sore & Herpes Treatment

Antiviral Care for Cold Sores & Herpes

Cold sores and genital herpes are caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV). Outbreaks can cause tingling, blisters, and discomfort, and they often recur. While there is no cure for HSV, antiviral medications can help manage outbreaks and, in some cases, reduce how often they occur.

During a private virtual visit, a licensed provider can review your symptoms and history. When appropriate, they can prescribe antiviral medication — and treatment started early in an outbreak tends to be most effective.

How Treatment Works

Antiviral medications are commonly used to treat HSV outbreaks and may also be taken daily to help reduce recurrences — an approach called suppressive therapy. Your provider will discuss which option fits your situation. Starting treatment at the first signs of an outbreak, such as tingling or itching, generally gives the best results.

Your visit is a flat $39 — a transparent, cash-pay rate with no insurance required.

When Telehealth Is a Good Fit

• Recognizable cold sore or herpes outbreak symptoms
• Previously diagnosed HSV seeking outbreak or suppressive treatment
• Adults wanting discreet, convenient care

When to seek in-person care: Seek in-person or emergency care for a severe first-time outbreak, sores near the eyes, signs of a spreading or worsening infection, a weakened immune system, or if you are pregnant — these situations may need closer evaluation.
