Avatar m tn I just wanted to followup on this post so that other users get positive hopes that PEP if taken early after exposure (I took it within 24 hours). I got side effects like Liver and Kidney profile test showed abnormalities, bad dreams, headaches, nausea , feeling of throwing up but I had made it a point, no matter what, I will complete my 28 days course. All of the side effects come and go during the 28 days course but they are in peak for initial few days. Below are the good habits I practiced.

4865450 tn?1361294533 have them laser removed and immediately start using an aldara and celebrex combo for a year. tell your doc you are really stiff or something to get the celebrex... maybe do some research and tell your doc what he/she needs to hear because insurance isn't going to cover it for your warts but it has been proven to work. it's not FDA approved yet.. too new of a treatment. There is an HIV drug that cures HPV as well, it's called Lopinavir - also not FDA approved for HPV.

Avatar f tn This study has to do with an HIV retroviral medication, if used on HPV patients, it might cure them. The drug is already produced, called lopinavir, however we need to make a topical version that is more potent: http://bodywart.com/hpv-news/lopinavir-destroy-hpv-infected-cells/ You might also want to look into a antiviral drug recently produced by MIT called DRACO. It sounds very promising but needs to be tested on actual humans.
184420 tn?1326739808 SCH 900518, when added to the current standard of care (SOC), peginterferon-alfa plus ribavirin, would likely increase the proportion of patients achieving undetectable HCV-RNA levels and sustained virologic response (SVR). In this study, SCH 900518 would be used in combination with low doses of ritonavir to enhance the levels of SCH 900518 within the body and reduce the number of daily SCH 900518 tablets required.
Avatar m tn Liver transplant patients are particularly in need of new hepatitis C treatments with better cure rates and fewer side effects. Not only is the infection a major cause of organ failure and the need for a new liver, but after patients get a donated organ their infection almost always reappears and can cause damage even faster, according to the researchers. More than 40 percent of the people on the U.S. liver transplant waiting list have hepatitis C. The drugs are crucial for AbbVie as well.
