Hello,I think you are confusing gonococcal disease with herpes simplex.Zovirax is the treatment for herpes simplex.Herpes simplex is caused by a virus.There is no permanent cure for herpes simplex though out breaks can be reduced with zovirax.Gonorrhoea is well treatable with antibiotic and partner treatment effectively cures the condition.However reinfections could happen with other infected partners,and rarely relapse.Best wishes.
