Report any signs of kidney problems, such as decreased urination, swelling in your legs or ankles, or unusual fatigue, to your doctor immediately.

If you notice any unusual changes in your neurological function, contact your doctor for assessment. These symptoms warrant prompt medical attention to prevent further complications.<\/p>\n<p>Always inform your doctor about all medications you are taking, including over-the-counter drugs and herbal supplements, before starting acyclovir treatment.
