If you develop viral oral herpes, antiviral medications may be used under a physician’s guidance. These medications are available in both oral and topical forms. Oral options include acyclovir tablets and antiviral oral solutions; topical preparations include acyclovir ointment and penciclovir ointment. During treatment, it is important to drink plenty of water, follow a light diet, consume soft and easily digestible foods, and avoid spicy or otherwise irritating foods.
