the reason why i did not take one more pill is that i believed cumulative plasma levels of raltegravir at day 22 May still exists in the circulation and thus i continued my regular dose just not to take second time double dose for raltegravir in case of i drank it through water. However i really do not remember and i also did not see any pills around.
Thank you very much for your kind response.
combining emtricitabine and tenofovir from the NRTI class, and raltegravir, from the integrase inhibitor class. There ARE alternative drugs available and possibly in Thailand they use lamivudine in place of raltegravir. I am definitely NOT a chemist, so I can't tell you for sure if the combination you're taking is appropriate. You should discuss your concerns with the doctor who prescribed PEP or a pharmacist/chemist. I wish you the best.
I started PEP 2 hrs later (truvada, norvir, raltegravir, and preszita), my initial results are negative. I do not know the viral load of the patient yet, i can only pray that it is low. I know odds are 0.3% but that doesnt settle my fears, i am young and want to live a happy healthy life with KIDS! DR. please tell me if you have honstly heard of any cases like mine that have converted. I am in awe and feel like my life is totally over and ruined.
I am relatively sure it did not break, but I cannot be 100% certain. Since then, he and I had talked (exchanged numbers), and he assured me he was HIV negative and had not had a partner since a negative test a few months prior. Due to my guilt and anxiety, I searched for PEP in Europe, which was IMPOSSIBLE. I eventually was able to obtain Truvada, which I started about 55hr after "exposure". I plan to take for the full 28 days.
I asked the CSW if she knew her status and she said she was negative (I know that doesn’t mean anything and is almost discomforting because if she is she is most likely not on ARVs). Anyways I rushed to the hospital and was put on PEP at a maximum of 3 hours post exposure (truvada and raltegravir). I have taken the pills without missing any doses. At 3 weeks post exposure the lymph nodes in my neck swelled up slightly and I felt a tiny bit feverish.
I am currently taking truvada and isentress (raltegravir) is this enough I couldn't get my prescription for dolutegravir filled...is this pep enough?
m confused on the prescriptions given to me I have a 7 day dose of raltegravir and dolutegravir...thought it was supposed to be 28 days?
I actually went to the clinic, got PEP (truvada 200mg and Raltegravir 400mg), also done hiv prick test which was negative. Dr was helpful and explained everything for me. He also said best thing is as u guys suggest, ask him test but also if he is clear 6 weeks back also, but that also depends on trust.
On my side i don't wanna embarrass him as twice he told me not to worry.
I had sex in a night club with a guy I don't know. I was very drunk and I'm not sure if we used condom or not - I've been trying to remember that moment, but it's quite impossible to trust my mind after many days. I was bottom and we had a short penetration, because I felt too much pain. But I'm not sure if there was ejaculation or not, I couldn't find the guy in the club later that night and I have no contact with him at all.
I am taking Truvada and Raltegravir. Yesterday, (3 days after exposure and 2 days on PEP) I had protected sex with a female partner (I, the insertive male) and when I ejaculated I am afraid some spilled off the base of the condom.
If I began PEP 24 hours after possible exposure and had protected sex with someone else on Day 2 of PEP, could I have biologically put them at risk for HIV if by any chance the ejaculate spilled off the condom?
I started PEP (Truvada and ISENTRESS which is Raltegravir Potassium Tablets) in 47 hours. I also saw some case about PEP with blood transfusion. A 12 years old girl had a blood transfusion with hiv blood, she took PEP( tenofovir, emtricitabine, ritonavir-boosted darunavir (subsequently changed to lopinavir) and raltegravir) after 24 hours and had these PEP for three months. This girl also has cssr5 dna which is a dna that hard to infect hiv.
I started PEP 2 hrs later (truvada, norvir, raltegravir, and preszita), my initial results are negative. I do not know the viral load of the patient yet, i can only pray that it is low.

I'm now on week 22 of my pegasys/riba therapy and been taking suboxone ever since and never had any problems.
I presume you had anal sex, because oral is not a risk.
HIV is only diagnosed from a test so all your details and questions have no answers.
Since you have passed 28 days, you can just take a 4th gen test for a conclusive result and all the details you mention which are just question marks will become irrelevant.
Last night, I had unprotected anal sex with a transvestite sex work. I know, bad move on my part. I was on top and inside of him for only a few minutes at most. One question: How risky is this? He said he's clean, but I don't know whether to believe that. If he is HIV positive, how possible is it I contracted HIV? I rushed to the ER this morning to get PEP, but is it even necessary? And what happens if I did contract HIV and the PEP doesn't work.
I had protected sex with an ex boyfriend of mine and then in the middle of sex he took off the condom and when i realized he took it off, i jumped and stopped immediately because i got scared and it was for about 10 seconds, we then did it again for like 15 seconds without condom hours later but then put condom right back on, 6 days after i developed a rash on my lower legs and a little was above my under arms. It lasted for one day. Does this sound like early hiv symptoms?
did you tell your doctor you're late?
Of these, Free T3 is the most important because Free T3 largely regulates metabolism and many other body functions. (note that Free T3 and T4 are not the same as Total T3 and T4).
From just looking at your lab results in light of my experience, I see nothing there to be alarmed about. Your Free T3 is above the midpoint of its range and Free T4 is also within range, though it is in the lower quarter of the range.
I'm 7 weeks pregnant and contracted a uterus infection and my doctor prescribed me two cycles of 1000mg of azithromycin and I'd love a second opinion!
I read online that your cervix is very sensitive during pregnancy and its possible my bf irritated, or (to be blunt) went too deep and made me bleed. Like I said, there was no pain or cramps or anything of that nature. I didnt even know I was bleeding. It wasnt alot, but it wasnt a little. Has anybody else had this problem, should I be worried?
