Guest guest Posted April 11, 2008 Report Share Posted April 11, 2008 I was wondering if anybody has noticed swollen lymph glands in their children after starting Valtrex? We started our son in Valtrex and after two days his right side of his neck got very swollen. His pediatrician prescribe antibiotics. We had to stop the Valtrex because my son got the flu pretty bad. We are going to start the Valtrex again this coming Monday so I would like to know if the swollen glands could be caused by the Valtrex working on suppressing any possible virus.

Guest guest Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 The side of the neck are where the viral glands are. My son's have always been swollen. After starting Valtrex, it really became prominent and then disappeared.
