Over the counter treatment of shingles
Over the counter treatment of herpes zoster involves the use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs like ibuprofen and naproxen.
Shingles is a skin problem that is usually caused by herpes zoster virus infection. People who have had chickenpox in the past are those who actually develop this infection. This is because the cause of chickenpox and shingles is no exception. The virus that causes chickenpox symptoms is the one who strikes again cause shingles, and is usually marked by the development of an itchy rash, usually in the chest and upper back. Blisters that form the group as a pattern is characteristic of the shingles rash. Affected area usually causes radiating pain that usually lasts until the viral infection. The infection usually goes in one months time, but what can be done more manageable pain during this time is often a cause for concern for patients of all shingles. "The answer to this question is described below:
Drugs for Shingles
Painkillers
Over the counter pain medication for shingles are non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Now the NSA not only help to reduce swelling, but also provide relief from pain. Also, many times painful symptoms of herpes zoster respond well to the NSA. So when it comes to combat pain and pain of shingles, go to the OTC NSAIDs can definitely serve the purpose. Although NSAIDs can block the pain, can significantly reduce the severity of pain. In order to ease pain and inflammation, NSAIDs such as ibuprofen and naproxen are useful in the treatment of shingles. Drugs such as paracetamol (for children) or aspirin are not sufficiently effective to reduce inflammation, but they are very able to overthrow the shingles pain. With regard to the dosage recommended below or choose regular strength tablets. Extra strength tablets can damage the stomach lining and cause ulcers.
Creams
As mentioned above, the site of rash not only causes pain, but also appears inflammation. To reduce swelling, you can go to hydrocortisone creams. In addition to relieve inflammation, hydrocortisone creams are also effective for alleviating itching sensation. Therefore, if relentless itching shingles rash bothers you a lot, it's time to get hydrocortisone cream. It is one of the best anti-itch treatment of this skin problem. Application of creams containing hydrocortisone 1% is found that very effective to get relief from itching. We can use calamine lotion or cortaid Lotion (Caladryl) for shingles rash. In essence, the local corticosteroid hydrocortisone, which displays anti-inflammatory effects, so use of these creams are trying to reduce skin inflammation. Application of antiseptic agents such as benzoin may also help reduce irritation and discomfort associated with shingles. Benzoin gum offers an amazing relief from shingles. Just dab it on the blisters that burst and expect no scars from skin disease removed.
Anti histamines
When the shingles rash develops, the body releases histamines (chemicals) in response to viral infection. The production of histamine is another reason why the skin itches. Studies show that reducing the amount of histamine production during infection may go a long way in reducing the itching sensation. This can be achieved by antihistamines and drugs that reduce the production of histamine. Histamines cause severe itching, and when the itching is not subside with the above anti-itch creams, one can use antihistamines like Zyrtec and Benadryl orally or topically, soothe itching.
Unfortunately, antiviral drugs can not be taken without medical prescription, these drugs work in most cases as to focus on underlying causes. It should be noted that over the counter treatment only relieves the symptoms of shingles. They do not help in any way to kill the virus, and therefore provides temporary relief. There have been cases in which painkillers proved ineffective in the waning symptoms. So in this case, you should immediately consult a doctor and collect oral antiviral drugs.

Using herbal natural remedy was what got me tested negative to HSV 2 after been diagnosed for 3years. I have spent so much funds on medications like acyclovir (Zovirax), Famciclovir (Famvir), and Valacyclovir (Valtrex), but it was all a waste of time and my symptoms got worse. To me It is very bad what big pharmacies are doing, why keep making humans suffer greatly just to get profits annually for medications that doesn't work.I'm glad that herbal remedies is gaining so much awareness and many people are getting off medications and activating their entire body system with natural herbal remedies and they are holistically healed totally.
