Guest guest Posted July 22, 2008 Report Share Posted July 22, 2008 Hi everybody. I am wondering if anybody can help me. I have a 3 year old boy with a ASD diagnosis. I am just starting with the Zovirax and I am not sure about the dosage. So far my family doctor prescribed it for one month with a regular dosage (according to weight) 5 times a day. If you had any experience with Zovirax could you tell me how it was? Should I try to convince my doctor to try Valtrex? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 22, 2008 Report Share Posted July 22, 2008 My daughter is almost 5 and around 35 lbs and she takes 400mg 3 times a day and it has been miraculous for us! I have written about it here. http://wakingsophie.com I call it acyclovir, it is the same thing though. I hope it goes as well for you as it has for us! > > Hi everybody.

Guest guest Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 Zovirax is dosed 5x a day so you're doc is right. We used Zovirax for a while and it worked great. Our doc likes to jump us around on antivirals but I think we were on it for about 6-8 months. I would stick with it for a while and see how your boy does.
