A member asked:
Numb little fingers and teeth clenching, hard to pee. am i experiencing acyclovir side effects? i'm taking it for shingles
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Shingles: The shingles may affect voiding pattern. Not necessarily a side effect of Acylovir, which is usually well tolerated. One solution is to lower the dosage of acylovir.
