Discussions tagged “Ganciclovir”

I'm dealing with a CMV infection and my doctor prescribed Ganciclovir 500mg Inj, which needs to be given through an IV. I've heard some concerning things about the side effects, including potential kidney issues and even seizures. Has anyone else had experience with this treatment? I'm particularly worried about the long-term effects and would love to know if anyone has had success with other treatments or alternative therapies. How does it affect day-to-day life? Any tips on managing the side effects would be greatly appreciated.
