Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The best treatment for herpes simplex virus is an oral antiviral agent such as acyclovir, valacyclovir, or famciclovir. These drugs work by inhibiting viral replication and can reduce the frequency and severity of outbreaks. Corticosteroids, oral griseofulvin, and topical/systemic antibiotics are not typically effective treatments for herpes simplex virus.
