Guest guest Posted January 1, 2011 Report Share Posted January 1, 2011 There is no blue coating on acyclovir, the whole pill is blue. You can't remove it. Valtrex has a blue coating that most like to wash off because of the dye and aluminum. Generic Valtrex is white. Cheryl~http://www.gryffins-tail.blogspot.com~@midian42~ Do folks usually remove the blue coating from the pill? Has anyone noticed a difference with and without it?

Guest guest Posted January 1, 2011 Report Share Posted January 1, 2011 Wash the pill and pat it dry. As far as I know people wash it! Who wants all the artificial colors, blech. Do folks usually remove the blue coating from the pill? Has anyone noticed a difference with and without it? -- Toni------Mind like a steel trap...Rusty and illegal in 37 states.
