Do the early cocktail medications AZT and current medications such as Triumeq cause long term side effects, such as Trigeminal Neuralgia or kidney issues?
For me, it's neurotharpy and my stomach is extremely uncomfortable, and my balance is totally off!!
AZT began in 1960’s as a cancer drug. It is highly toxic. Unfortunately, early HIV patients (80’s-90’s) were given doses several times what was efficacious. On the positive side, AZT has been effective preventing mother-baby transmission (Short term use). I’m unclear if it’s still preferred for that.
Early 1990’s, I delayed presenting myself for treatment when AZT was the only available medication. Seems I wasn’t mistaken.
