Guest guest Posted June 9, 2004 Report Share Posted June 9, 2004 My question is in regard to the lack of response. If we did not observe the die-off has addressed the underlying problem. Valtrex seems to be beneficial but is it aggressive enough. By changing Meds do you expand the variety of viruses you are trying to eliminate. Confused as always Bill Re: Famvir vs. Valtrex Our son has done better on Valtrex. I belive each child is different and you do not know how a med fits unless you try it on. Understand about the plateaus...but I believe if you find a med that does not cause negative side effects stick with it. How long on Famvir? Our experience also was we saw progress each time Dr G had us increase Celexa dose...Jack is 40 lbs and 4 1/2 yrs up to 1 1/4 of a 10 mg tablet daily.

Guest guest Posted June 9, 2004 Report Share Posted June 9, 2004 Does anyone out there know anything about ecxema and what is effective to treat it?I have tried creams and ointments and nothing is helping to relieve the constant skin flare ups. I am having a series of patch tests done soon to find what it is that I am so allergic to. Thanks to anyone who can help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted June 15, 2004 Report Share Posted June 15, 2004 My Daughter gets occasional eczema, but since eliminating DAIRY products from her diet it fixed the problem. When she eats pizza at the occational birthday party, her eczema return but only in small patches. I hope this helps.
