Avatar m tn 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.
Avatar m tn 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.
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.
Avatar m tn 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.
446474 tn?1446347682 * Boceprevir reduced average trough concentrations of ritonavir-boosted atazanavir (Reyataz), lopinavir (Kaletra), and darunavir (Prezista) by 49%, 43% and 59%, respectively. * On average, reductions of 25% to 36% were seen in peak concentration of the three drugs, when given with boceprevir, along with declines of 34% to 44% in exposure (area under the curve).
Avatar m tn 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!
Avatar f tn 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.
Avatar n tn 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.
Avatar m tn 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?
250084 tn?1303307435 I am curious on this, reading other's tx's here. We know that a non reponder with Peg, Riba must extend, harder to achieve SVR, etc. but when one is noted as a non responder with monotherapy, is it, should it really be considered non responder? Being it's a different tx, and was usually not very successful. Not too sure I'd do 72 weeks due to that. Would the possibility of built resistance to interferon apply here?
Avatar m tn 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....
Avatar f tn Willy: Well, first let me say that I am mighty surprised and disappointed. I had expected that the same response dynamic would simply continue evenly across all genotypes. --------------------------------- Why disappointed? Seems geno 2's fare better with Telaprevir than geno 1's and may be able to treat with monotherapy. As to geno 3's, it looks like only monotherapy didnt do well but maybe Im reading this study wrong.
863555 tn?1239133228 Yes, it sounds interesting, indeed. I recognized retonavir, since I'm using it in my HIV cocktail, too. In my case to boost lopinavir. (The other two I use are emtricitabine and tenofovir). Daily, I use 200 mg of retonavir to boost 800 mg of lopinavir. I read in the study that 100 or 200 mg of retonavir is used to boost 200, 400 or 600 mg of SCH 900518/boceprevir. My HIV is successfully suppressed (i.e. UND) after two weeks of interferon -- that's three weeks ago.
Avatar m tn What is my overall risk of acquiring HIV, taking in consideration all that I have described above?. Thank you very much in advance.
Avatar m tn SB 9200 is the Company’s novel small molecule nucleic acid hybrid (SMNH) compound being developed as both monotherapy and combination therapy for the treatment of Hepatitis B (HBV) and other viral diseases. The first portion of the ACHIEVE trial is a Phase 2a placebo-controlled, sequential-cohort, double-blind trial to evaluate increasing doses of SB 9200 as monotherapy for 12 weeks followed by tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (marketed by Gilead Sciences, Inc.
Avatar f tn I have to ask: Was this your doctor's decision to treat you with monotherapy for this long ? Or did you push for it ? The reason I ask is I can't imagine what kind of logic the doctor employed to reach this decision to continue monotherapy for this length of time. I'm not ruling out an explanation that I haven't considered---there could be one in which case I'd really like to know what it was.
Avatar m tn A phase II, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of nitazoxanide treatment for 24 weeks in 50 patients with chronic HCV-4 hepatitis was performed to evaluate the safety of prolonged administration and to determine the antiviral efficacy of nitazoxanide monotherapy (46).
Avatar n tn Pegasys is not used as a monotherapy in hep C patients. If he is taking it with ribavirin that would be for hepatitis C. People with pregnant partners should not use ribavirin during their partners pregnancy. Interferon alone is sometimes used for hairy cell leukemia, kidney cancer and melanoma. It is not used for liver damage as a monotherapy since it was proven that it does not help the liver recover from damage due to any reason.
Avatar m tn 200 IU/mL, compared to only 20% in the entecavir monotherapy group (p=0.107). 24% of patients in the add-on versus 11% in the monotherapy-arm achieved HBeAg-seroconversion with HBV DNA< 200IU/ml (p=0.029). After adjustment for the difference in HBV DNA levels at week 24, add-on therapy was independently associated with higher response rates (p=0.007). In terms of other serological parameters, adding peginterferon to entecavir led to a greater decline in HBsAg (0.27 versus 0.
Avatar m tn The present study compared the efficacy of standard and extended durations of PEG-IFNα-2a monotherapy for treatment of HBeAg-negative Chinese patients with chronic hepatitis B. Patients were randomized to receive standard therapy (n = 38; 48 weeks treatment) or extended therapy (n = 42; 72 weeks treatment).
468276 tn?1207107867 It's not going to do much as a monotherapy - triple therapy YES but monotherapy NO. The following is from a very recent Clinical Care Option article. "Rossignol and colleagues reported that, although nitazoxanide monotherapy was associated with only a very modest decrease in HCV RNA (-0.
