Guest guest Posted March 3, 2008 Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 Hi All, My son who is 7yo & about 48 lbs starts to take Valtrex + Nizoral (generic) since 16 Jan. He is GFCF since early 2005. His current dosage of Valtrex is 1250mg (split in 3 times : 500mg, 250mg then 500mg) & Nizoral at 100mg (taken 1 time in am). After 3 weeks on Nizoral, on 7 Feb switched to Diflucan at 50mg. On 14 Feb (after about a week on Diflucan & 4 weeks on Valtrex), he became very mad 10 mins after Diflucan + Valtrex. He threw up everything on table, pull down chair & hit his granny while I was working in office. Granny was so frighten. Follow this incident, on 16 Feb switched back to Nizoral. To me Nizoral seems work better. However about less than a week after resume Nizoral, on 2 Mar at 4 am, he wake up & behaved madly (hit me & knocked his head on floor). Gave him 100 mg Nizoral & he was back to normal in just few mins & went back to sleep. On 4 Mar while in school, he hit his classmate & bite his bowl, spoon etc. Before Valtrex, he is a good kid without any bad behaviour. My questions : (1) Is it okay if I increase the Nizoral to 200mg (split in 2x) & give this in long term. (2) Nizoral seems work for him but when should I do rotation with other anti-fungal. (3) I guess I should proceed Valtrex even with those bad behaviour encountered. (4) should I try Diflucan again & increase the dosage from 50mg to 100mg. Thanks in advance for your help.
