Avatar f tn Will truvada and and a respiratory antibiotics have interqction/ side effects if simultaneously on both medicine? or which antibiotics and safe with truvada for respiratory infection?
Avatar m tn In the meantime, I have found some information that addresses your question specifically, but I still rigorously urge you to discuss THIS and all your questions with your doctor. __________________________________________________________ Tell your doctor what other prescription or over-the-counter meds, vitamins, or herbal supplements you take, and also any recreational drugs or alcoholic beverages you consume. Truvada should not be taken in combination with certain other HIV drugs.
Avatar m tn Hi, after being exposed to HIV 15 days ago, I'm on day 14 of PEP (Truvada & Isentress). I wonder if facial lipoatrophy (sunken cheeks, temples, eyes, etc) can develop as early as two weeks of being taking these meds. I'm a male model and I make a living of my face. Last week I was fired from 3 photo-shoots in a row. I don't know if I'm really experiencing facial fat waste, or if my face just reflects all the emotional distress I've been through for the past 2 weeks.
Avatar m tn At 3:30 to 4 AM last night I topped a guy in a dark room at a bar. I was very drunk and did not use a condom. It lasted maybe all of 30 seconds to a minute-- I recall about four pumps. Knowing that it's a risk, I went to an LGBT community health clinic that works with HIV positive folks daily and got PEP. The physician's assistant initially was going to prescribe Stribild but there was an issue with prescriptions so she gave me a script for Truvada and said it was fine.
Avatar f tn I d keep truvada until hbvdna undetectable and then switch to viread
Avatar m tn Yesterday, I took 1 Truvada at 7am but since I was in a hurry after dinner, I accidentally took one more Truvada last night. I tried to vomit it up but I was able to vomit only a part (dissolved part) of it. Because of panic, I forgot to take Kaletra last night. I rushed to the A&E and asked the doctor's advice on what to do. Since I waited for more than 3 hours before I was able to see the doctor, I was already drowsy when the doctor talked to me.
Avatar f tn Since the chances a quite low Can I stop taking pep or can I stop kaletra and remain with truvada take it upto 28days.coz kaletra gives me diarrhea.
Avatar f tn It's just 3 days i've started taking Truvada. And i am already started feeling sideeffects like- 1) numbness in legs, hands and arms (today in kitchen container fell from my hand) 2) headache 3) mainly dizziness 4) tiredness, feeling weak...like i will fall now... Are these normal, moreover i'm pregnant and have high cholesterol didn't felt before taking Truvada? Is Truvada making me worse or strengthening? Should i report this to Dr.?
Avatar m tn How can I change from taking Truvada in the noon to taking Truvada at midnight? For instance, should I do two doses of Truvada in one 24 hour period or should I do no doses in one 24 hour period to get it right? 3. When the doctors prescribed the medication I ended up taking 4x the recommended dose of Aluvia. This was due to me having received four cans of Aluvia,not realizing that each can was meant to last 1 week.
Avatar m tn my window period for pap closing tomorrow and i am only taking truvada, and i m reading that usually truvada taken with other hiv prophylaxis meds, so this is what i wanted to know if truvada only is enough for prophylaxis. i m calling a doctor but he is not picking up...
Avatar m tn I am a gay male and have taken Truvada as PrEP daily since last November. This past week, I ran out of my Truvada after taking it on Tuesday morning. Prior to that, I had taken it daily for more than a month. I did not take Truvada on Wednesday or Thursday. I changed insurances and wanted to wait to pick up my refill until I got my copay and assistance straightened out. On Friday I had anal sex as the bottom with a man I know who says he is negative.
Avatar m tn An international study found the antiviral combination of tenofovir and emtricitabine (Truvada) was most effective in treating younger adult hepatitis B patients with high viral load and normal ALT levels. Doctors historically have not treated this group because there appeared to be no sign of liver damage. However, doctors now know that high viral loads may increase patients’ risk of liver damage and cancer as they age, despite their normal ALT levels.
Avatar f tn Hi! This question is for an expert or someone who has information from reliable sources on net. Can I change from Kaletra to Istentress after few days during the course of 28 day PEP period? This is in addition to Truvada. I am in area where I do not have any good access to knowledgeable doctor. Is there any paid online service available for such consultation in any country? It is a pity that in most places HIV is still a big taboo and no good doctors are available.
Avatar m tn or other adverse events when they used or stopped using Truvada for HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), according to an analysis from the iPrEx study presented at the Eighth International AIDS Society Conference on HIV Pathogenesis, Treatment and Prevention (IAS 2015) last month in Vancouver, Canada. This is a potential concern because the drugs in Truvada – tenofovir and emtricitabine – are active against HBV as well as HIV.
Avatar f tn I have been taking Truvada since 2008, 5 months ago I did the pregnancy test, the result was positive. I am worry about side effects to my baby if I continue to take Truvada during my pregnant... Does anyone have same experience, please tell me more, thx.
Avatar m tn So I had a discussion with my doctor yesterday regarding the recent elevation in my AST, ALT ( about 1.5 x ULN). I am LAM resistance, on Truvada for almost 2 years now. Everything else (HBV DNA undetectable, ultrasound ok, CBC, fibroscan + all other stuff i have no idea) came back normal. AST + ALT was in normal range all the time but 3 months recently have been up a bit. She advised me to continue monitoring my condition and warn me about possible resistance.
Avatar n tn After several hours going from a hospital to another, I finally could get a Truvada pill in the very deadline limit of the treatment, probably between the 72nd and 74th hour after the sex. I was quite desperate and I felt that the staff in this hospital wasn't too much prepared to take cases like mine with HIV risk envolved. It took too many hours, even though I tried to explain them the gravity about this situation.
Avatar f tn who took a full STD sample blood and urine. Also, she gave me a script for Truvada. I had from my knowlege protected sex with her. What is my risk and should I take Truvada? My window is closing!
Avatar m tn Hello all! This is my first post. I am currently in Bangkok for work and I went out last night, had too many drinks and ended up sleeping with a hooker. I have been so distraught over this. I barely eat today and I have yet to sleep. I did use a condom but there was a period of time before I put the condom on where the woman was grinding on my penis. I was very much intoxicated so I can't honestly say for sure if my penis penetrated her without the condom.
