25 Sep 2010 Having suffered from herpes outbreaks for 60 years, I was elated to find Herplex. It is so great I just gave my last bottle to a friend thinking I could pick some more up at WalMart. I drove the pharmacy people crazy trying to find it. Where can I get it or is it prescription only now or has it just disappeared? Guess I'll have to get it back from my friend. I'm serious...I had to have a corneal transplant to get rid of the scarring herpes caused in my eye. And as you herpes sufferers know, an outbreak always occurs when you are trying to look your best. Help!
