Will I Have Problems With Valacyclovir?
Side Effects of Valacyclovir: Final Thoughts
You may experience some or none of the side effects of valacyclovir listed in this article. Unfortunately, there is no way for your healthcare provider to know beforehand if you will have side effects from a medicine that you have never tried. Therefore, let your healthcare provider know if you develop any side effects while taking the drug or if something "just does not seem right." While it may not be a side effect of valacyclovir, your healthcare provider will be able to diagnose and treat the problem.
