Hey guys, 

I thought this was pretty good news for HSV-2 sufferers. This Vivagel compound (astrodrimer sodium) can essentially be used as an antiviral lube, and was specifically developed for HIV & HSV-2.  

http://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20150924005411/en/EU-Marketing-Approval-Granted-VivaGel®-BV#.VgxbWmRVhBc

I'm not an expert, but this is FANTASTIC news for HSV-2 sufferers, you can apply the gel to areas that condoms wont cover.

Dare i say it (might need VKK or another science geek to explain) but perhaps you could use Vivagel + Antivirals as a sexual solution? If you dont like condoms that is.... 

I for one think this is great news because Europe is TIGHT on any products similar to vivagel.

Finally, progress.... :)

It's worth mentioning if you're worried about transmission through areas not covered by a condom, that Dr. Halford said simply having sex through two layers of underwear would likely decrease risk of transmission by close to 1000x.  

Also, I highly recommend people just hire someone off of Craigslist in Australia and have them purchase and mail you the Vivagel condoms.  I live in the U.S. and the process was pretty hassle free.

just curious, how long did it take for you to get condoms from the land down under? haha

Uhhh...where are you guys reading "Antiviral"? The only thing it says on the website link you posted there is that the lube helps to treat Bacterial Vaginosis (BV). Nothing antiviral about that (though anti-bacterial for sure).

Right here my friend: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2676817/

The active ingredient is SPL7013, a dendrimer that was designed specifically with HIV and HSV antiviral activity and human safety in mind. SPL7013 has demonstrated efficacy against human immunodeficiency virus and herpes simplex virus in in vitro and animal models. VivaGel appears to be well tolerated in both animals and humans.

      Pritelivir: At Last

      By @lw@ys · Posted

      Just another set of supporting articles to a potential release date in 2024 giving hope to sufferers whom the standard of care is currently worthless: Promising Progress in clinical trials for Pritelivir (herpescureadvocacy.com) HSV Treatment Readies for Approval — Precision Vaccinations News

      Cheaper Amenalief source

      By @lw@ys · Posted

      I have not found a cheaper source for Amenalief, and I've searched high and low. I have a thread called "Pritelivir at Last" you may want to follow as I have a strong belief that It may be available to the public in the summer of 2024 and as I find new info, I update the thread immediately. Now, may I suggest a combination of drugs that several others on this forum have found to be very effective over acyclovir alone? Myself and others have found that taking 40mg of omeprazole (Tagamet @dissolvedo2 ) with 1 gram of Valacyclovir in the morning and 1 gram of Valacyclovir in the evening alone for 3 days have had profound effectiveness at stopping outbreaks in their tracks. I'd like to remind you that I am not a doctor and at best I am personal researcher for what works for me. I @lw@ys share my findings with the forum in the hopes to help others alleviate their suffering. There is another drug combo that I have tried myself as well as others on this forum have tried and that I personally feel is a much more effective for myself. This combo is 1 gram of activated charcoal with 1-gram of valacyclovir in the morning followed by 1 gram of valacyclovir in the evening alone, again for 3 days. I have found that this has reduced my outbreaks to almost only once a year and they are mild at worse. Again, just a reminder that this works for me and may not work for you but I always feel that i have to share this with anyone that cannot get this virus under control so I hope my findings can help those of you who cannot achieve relief with the standard treatment alone. The stronger anti-virals come with risks and if I can help anyone avoid those risks then by all means I feel I have done some good in this world. I only ask that you let me know if either of these suggestions work for you so that I can document it in my notes. Good luck my friend!

      Terrified I have herpes

      By Damian · Posted

      Hi @WhatDidIDo2023, hopefully all is well with you and your significant other and are still together.   Did she develop any other symptoms after you mentioned her getting itchiness? Was it determined what you had was contagious? Most likely developed a fungal disease and caused her a yeast or uti
