Hi everyone, I have take a PEP treatment for 25 days, which included Lopinavir&Ritrnonavir & Truvada.
I have had diarrhea, anxiety, sleepless nights, depression, numbness in hands and legs, while using these
medications. Its been a week i stopped the medication and all my HIV tests have been negative so far.
Has anyone read the news that came out yesterday about hpv treatment with the Lopinavir drug?
It shows some promising results so I'd like to get anyone's take on this.
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:

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.
1 - would PEP be effective even if the source has a high viral load?
2 - After the 28 days, can I drink alcohol?
Thank you very much in advance, I am quite distressed about it.
I had my 2nd FNA two weeks ago after my first one came back with hurthle cells and suspicious. They sent my 2nd biopsy for molecular testing and my results came back as suspicious again. So I'm meeting with an endo surgeon next week. If both biopsies were suspicious AND the molecular testing was suspicious I'm assuming it means if my nodule isn't cancer now that it will be in the future. Is this a correct assessment?
Zidovudine and Lamivudine Tablets ,Lopinavir/RitonavirOral Solution .i want to know ,will it work?how much percent will i avoid being infected?thank you all!
So, I am at the 15th day of my pep regime and have been strictly adhering to the program till today. I have been taking lopinavir ritonavir along with tenofovir. I am taking 2pills twice for the first one and one pill once a day for tenofovir. Today my bottle of rito/lopi finished after I took my first dose. I went to the doc clinic which was closed and he says i can only get the meds tomorrow.
11,12am), I take hiv block drugs from doctor, these drugs are Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate Tablets , Aluvia (Lopinavir and Ritonavir Tablets) and Lamivudine Tablets. I have take these drugs for 28 days (until 2013.10.8),at 2013.10.9(1 day after taking drugs) , I have take a HIV Duo or Combo (4th generation) test and the result is negative .
so, I want to know
1. Could these drugs delay the hiv window period , so that the combo tese was not correct?
2.
1-My partner tested Negative(Antigen/ Antibody) on 22 days post exposure
2-Thinking that i might be developing facial Lipodystrophy (slight facial fat loss under cheek bones). I cant tell if my face was like this before the treatment or it is just an illusion.
What can i do to really know if i developed some lipodystrophy ? any test u can advise about?
No prospective randomized trials including an untreated control group confirming the benefit of low molecular weight heparin in preventing pregnancy loss in thrombophilic women have been performed. However, the concordant results of the studies cited above suggest that anticoagulation may improve pregnancy outcome in thrombophilic women.
12 pmol/L = 0.93 ng/dL = 0.00093 µg/dL due to molecular weight T4: 777 ==> leads to different conversion factors for different types of measures.
You are right about the TRAS, thyroid receptor antibodies.
Again, thanks for your reply. Much appreciated.
You should be considering medications (probably metformin) and also losing weight if you are overweight, increasing activity / exercise levels and eating a lower carb diet to help get this under control.
Aspirin, alcohol (in cough compounds and pediatric elixers), morphine, codeine, dextromethorphan (“DM” in cough compounds), nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents, procaine, opiates (codeine, Demerol, morphine), thiamine, high molecular weight polymers (dextran).
Medicines, topical: Topical antibiotics containing polymyxin B.
Medicines sometimes used with general anesthesia: D-tubocurarine, scopolamine, decamethonium, resperpine.
This is known. Are there any similar action in the protease inhibitor, such as Kaletra (lopinavir) for example?
Have you ever thought about that?
I read - sometimes laugh. Simvastatin, vitamin D, which the Chinese poeben, mythical new drugs, masturbation with measurements of the level of HBsAg, and other nonsense....
Hi, I'm an RN and I can tell you that heparin and levonox are basically the exact same thing. They are often used interchangeably in hospitals. The major difference in the molecular weight. Otherwise they do the exact same thing. However, you shouldn't be taking heparin and aspirin 325 at the same time, it might thin out your blood to a dangerous degree. You usually have to do an INR to monitor the blood clotting ability and to ensure that your blood isn't too thin.
However, one study failed to find any difference between high molecular weight and low molecular weight beta-glucan for normalizing cholesterol and blood sugar levels.34
Safety Issues
Beta-glucan, as a substance widely present in foods, is thought to have a high margin of safety. However, if it really does activate the immune system, harmful effects are at least theoretically possible in people with conditions where the immune system is overactive.
