Common Questions and Answers about Efavirenz dissolution

I have 20 years and I have HIV positive person. I drink medicines already 4 months. I use drugs Truvada and Efavirenz Teva. Please tell me how to code your disease treated? Whether you are at injection instead of pills?
Are there still any evidence of efavirenz teratogenicity in human studies especially on the neuro tube defect
1 hours ago I had protected sex with a sex worker which ended with a failed condom(punched) and then hour later i went to consult doctor and he prescribed EFAVIRENZ and LAMZID.AM I STIL SAFE?
Since that time, he is receiving HAART with lamivudine-zidovudine-efavirenz twice daily, but he told me that there are some days ( at maximun 3) that he does not take the pills, but most days of the month he is adhering to the treatment. His current viral load is 39,000 copies/ml.
When I realized of him diagnosis, I went to a doctor who gave me profilaxis about 18 hours post-exposure with lamivudine-zidovudine.
In reviewing a number of PubMed articles it appears that an alternative might be Gallstone dissolution therapy using Ursodiol. The Physicians at the hospital could/would not tell me the size of the gallstones, nor did they know whether they were cholesterol based. I felt they were railroading me into surgery. I decided to check myself out of the hospital. I was able to get them to prescribe 30 days worth of Ursodiol.
A new computer software developed by researchers at the University at Buffalo that simulates clot dissolution using the same techniques employed to analyze chemical reactors will provide information for physicians to know precisely how blood clots, and then tailor drug therapies and reduce patients risks
The computer software is a program that provides a 'snapshot' of a blood clot undergoing dissolution,
By simulating reaction and transport processes at and near the clot, the softwar
I am an HIV + male. 43 on truvada/ efavirenz for 2 year with a count of minus 20(undetectable). I was penetrated twice last week where the condom broke and was NOT replaced. The "top" partner is aware of my hiv status. What are the chances of infection for him and apart from testing what should be done? I am otherwise very healthy, no cuts, blood or aparent bruising was detected. I am freaking out for him.
Every radiologist that I have worked with requires a negative ultrasound within 90 days before administering Kinevac (CCK analogue). Further, gallstone dissolution was basically thrown out with the 1992 NIH concensus report on the management of gallbladder disease in everyone except those with an unexcepatably high surgical risk.
My doctor recently put me on a combination of drugs for PEP, the drugs are lamzid and efavirenz and have very serious side effects. My exposure was licking/sucking a nipple of a non-pregnant HIV positive person. No milk came or blood came out but just had an after taste in my mouth. The act was for 2-3 seconds. What are my chances of getting HIV and are the reported cases of infection in adults, cause I know with babies you can.
One last question-- What type of specialist/s would I want to see for lithotripsy or for contact dissolution therapy (or any other treatment that isn't going to include removing the gallbladder)?
I am asking as I am still young enough to safely carry out surgery a few months, or years later (should bile acid therapy fail) and given that the gallstones were not visible in the CT scan, potentially making them better candidates for bile acid dissolution. Moreover, I suspect my gallstones may have been the result of some previous fasting / rapid weight loss, which I will be careful to avoid in the future. Thank you in advance for your opinion on this.
Welcome to the forum. Thanks for your question.
Since you are under care with PEP drugs, that doctor or clinic really ought to be the primary source of information about your risk, follow-up plans, etc. Therefore, my comments are brief.
Based on HIV infected persons' sexual histories of when and how they were infected, a CDC study calculated a risk of 1 HIV infection for every 10,000 episodes or performing fellatio on infected partners.
m now under retro-viral treatment (Abacavir, 3TC Lamiduvina, and Efavirenz TM as known in my country), healthy, fit, high CD4 count, undetectable viral load. Recently, I met a person, we kissed and we practiced oral sex on each other. Eventhough I know my condition, and have always tried to avoid people practice fellation on me, he insisted and at the end I agreed. Now, I am really concerned about him. Could he have been infected? Should I tell him to test for HIV?
These drugs may affect dissolution, absorption, and overall efficacy of some oral medications, but do not afffect HIV ab. blood tests.
Drugs are my specialty, so I will let someone else answer your "window period question".
Hi all,
I have been on a combination of PEP drugs for the past week, the drugs are lamzid and efavirenz. 2 days after taking the drugs I started growing ulcers on my mouth (which has happened before) and I think one in my anus. Could this mean that I am HIV positive? I am very scared. My exposure was sucking a nipple of a woman for less than 2 seconds.
On AUGUST 19TH and AUGUST 20TH, I started taking ARVs which doctor prescribed. (Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate 300mg, Lamivudine USP 600mg, Efavirenz USP 200mg). ARVs made me dizzy, so I stoppped on AUGUST 21ST and AUGUST 22ND. After the viral load result, I started ARVs again. One pill everyday regularly.
4. On AUGUST 29th, I gave blood sample for PCR-HIV QUALITATIVE: (Performed using the Roche COBAS Ampliprep/COBAS Taqman HIV-1 Qualitative Version 2.0 assay.) It turned out negative.
I have two large gallstones, souvenirs of earlier years when I was careless of my diet. I've had three gall bladder attacks in the last three years and have ended up in Emergency (where the gallstones where discovered by ultrasound).
I have been trying to research techniques for getting rid of gallstones.
I was given pep (efavirenz+ tenofovir + lamivudine) for 28 days after 48 hours. But I had it for 29 days instead. Now after 57 days I am having flu like symptoms. Runny nose and a bit of sore throat. No fever though. And my abdominal hurts a bit and a little joint pain..
1. What are my chances of contracting hiv from this fingering exposure?
2. Is pep successful if taken at 48 hours of exposure.?
3. Do i need testing? I was tested negative at baseline.
They took my blood test only as a ground zero (for later comparisons). Then doctor prescribed me Zilarvir (2 tablets a day) and Efavirenz (1 tablet a day) to take them one (1) month. The medicines arrived at 15:00 (3:00 PM) and I took both - 17 hours after the incident and high risk exposure.
Doctor told me to come after one month when they will take a new blood test and follow-up.
I am on 300 mg of lamivudine (1 time before bed) 600 mg of efavirenz (1 time before bed) and 300 mg tenofovir (1 time before bed), How effective this for PEP? I am not sure coz I went for an emergency ward which may not have expert on HIV infection. Also I read the label it said for PEP purpouse lamivudine should be used as 150 mg twice daily. Am I right?
After 29 hours of exposure, I took Zifam Eletec (Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate 300mg+Lamivudine 300mg+Efavirenz 600mg) and I had been taking it regularly at the same exact time every day (30 days course) which ended on Jan 27, 2022.
1. For my case, may I know the HIV infection risk/possibility for my exposure (because the HIV status of that female is unknown and contact time is short)?
2.
Since that time, he is receiving HAART with lamivudine-zidovudine-efavirenz twice daily, but he told me that there are some days ( at maximun 3) that he does not take the pills, but most days of the month he is adhering to the treatment. His current viral load is 34,000 copies/ml.
When I realized of him diagnosis, I went to a doctor who gave me profilaxis about 18 hours post-exposure with Combivir.
