    Overdose

    Symptoms Overdose of valacyclovir has reported the development of acute renal failure and neurological symptoms, including confusion, hallucinations, agitation, decreased mental capacity and coma. Nausea and vomiting may have been observed. To prevent unintentional overdose, use caution. Many cases of overdose were associated with the use of the preparation for the treatment of patients with renal insufficiency and elderly patients, for whom the dose was not reduced accordingly.
    Treatment. Patients need to be closely monitored for toxicity. Hemodialysis significantly accelerates the elimination of acyclovir from the blood and therefore it can be considered the optimal treatment for symptomatic overdose.

    Side effects

    Among the more serious adverse reactions were reports of thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura / hemolytic uremic syndrome, acute renal failure, and neurological disorders.

    Interaction

    No clinically significant forms of interaction were identified.
    Patients who receive higher doses of the preparation (4 g or more per day) should be careful when prescribing concomitantly with preparations that compete with acyclovir for the elimination route, as this can lead to an increase in plasma levels of one or both preparations and their metabolites ... With simultaneous use with mycophenolate mofetil (an immunosuppressive preparation used after organ transplantation), the plasma level of acyclovir and the inactive metabolite of mycophenolate mofetil increases.
    You should also be careful (with monitoring changes in renal function) while prescribing high doses of the preparation (4 g or more) and other preparations that affect renal function (for example, cyclosporine, tacrolimus).
