Medication for first outbreak

Hey everyone, I'm still dealing with my first outbreak I know the first one can be long and really painful, I’m still confused though I went to to the doctors almost immediately of having symptoms she gave me pills to take 5 pills a day every 4 hours plus cream to put on it every 4 hours as well for a week. I’m at the end of my meds and lotion and still experiencing itching and discomfort a lot better from when it started but still there, do I let it go away on it’s own now or go back to the doctors for more medication? Also on the topic of medications I want to go on supressive therapy, my question is do you have to have a lot of OB to get it or can you get it after your first OB? I know some doctors don’t like suggesting suppressive therapy.
