How many people know that acyclovir does not always work nor prevents the transmission of Herpes?

Why is it that no one promotes the safer treatment of L lysine for Herpes instead of the dangerous pharmaceuticals?
Is it all about money or is this because people are unaware like doctors?
L lysine is safer and more effective along with promoting a good healthy diet high in antioxidants.

acyclovir
causes cancer and birth defects in unborn children L Lysine does not.
I use L-lysine when I get a mouth cold sore I began getting them when I began smoking. They go away really fast and since I quit smoking I do not get them as often except under stress.
Do any of you read the itty bitty information they write as warnings on these pharmaceuticals?

While I like L-lysine, it also DOES NOT ALWAYS PREVENT TRANSMISSION OF HERPES.
Acyclovir has its place, and so does L-lysine.
An Italian study published in the New England Journal of Medicine in 2004 showed that sero-discordant couples (one poz, one neg) on valacyclovir (Valtrex) suppression therapy who used condoms consistently had impressively low rates of infection in the previously negative partner. It was somewhere close to 90+% prevention of infection. Not bad at all. Not perfect, but better than nothing.
So let’s not be slagging the meds so quickly. Homeopathy plays a big role in health, but so do pharmaceuticals.
