Acyclovir and behavior changes: Help Please

[Guest guest]

Hi All,

My son (5 years old) just started Acyclovir as part of our first try

and anti-viral treatment, about 6 days ago. Here is what we are seeing:

1. More aggression

2. More lack of impulse control

3. Throwing toys (he's always thrown toys when he doesn't know what

to do with them but this has increased.

4. Low muscle tone issues again (seeing tongue sticking out more when

relaxed

5. Deep cough

I haven't seen any wow's or even any real good changes yet. Right now

we're pretty frustrated with him because he is just being so mean to

his sister and mean to his toys. Is aggression and aggresive type

behaviors something we might see with anti virals? He is pretty high

functioning so I'm just not sure what is going on here and I know we

should just stay the course. Is this part of the regression (things

being worse before they get better sort of thing)?

Please advise. We're on Nystatin for yeast control and a boat load of

other suppliments. Thanks for your help.
