Guest guest Posted January 7, 2012 Report Share Posted January 7, 2012 Hi My dd ( 18 ,severe AST) started valtrex on Friday on the recommendation of Dr G following testing that showed very high levels of IGG to varicella zoster. She also has severe OCD. She had 2, 500 mg doses on friday and 3 doses Saturday.She has been awake all sat evening and has been sick twice in quick sucession. I don't know whether to continue the valtrex tomorrow or abandon it . Is this side effect likely to pass or get worse if I continue to give her it. She is very severely affected and can't really tell me how she is feeling. TIA Kath Sent from my iPad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 Imo worth sticking to it. If those side effects persist maybe consider/discuss lower the dose.

Guest guest Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 Hi Many thanks, that's what I had decided and have given her a 500 mg dose this morning. She is looking a bit green around the gills though. It will be disappointing if she can't tolerate it but I guess we will have to try naturals instead.
