Hi Concerned Male,

Valtrex is an antiviral medication that helps decrease the incidence and severity of outbreaks in people who have herpes. It would not decrease the likelihood of spreading the disease through sexual contact. If she has herpes type 1 in her vaginal area then any body part of yours that contacts her vaginal region would be susceptible to contracting the virus. So yes, if you gave her oral sex, you would risk getting the virus on your mouth. If she doesn't have the virus on her mouth and has NEVER had an outbreak there, she would not be passing the virus to you from her mouth, only her vaginal region.

Hope that helps and you get the information you are looking for.
