I was having headaches too but after about two weeks it stopped. How long have you been on it?

These are the most common side effects from Acyclovir.

I would suggest that you visit a pharmacist and see what alternative medication they can offer.

It may be that they will prescribe you with something to combat your side effects.

Hope this helps
