Guest guest Posted January 1, 2006 Report Posted January 1, 2006 My son's regression escalated with the increased dose also...however, after a couple of weeks, his behavior is now back to pre-Valtrex...so I would hang in there at the higher dose...apparently it is doing something!

Guest guest Posted January 2, 2006 Report Posted January 2, 2006 We have no history of a child that size taking more than 750 mg, so I don't have a suggestion about going up to 1000mg. The adult dosage is 3000mg just for comparison. - Stan > > 32 pounds > Quote
