It’s been great for me according to my lab work. However I’ve gained 60 pounds in 3 years.

I had a little drop in my CD4 count and my viral load increased at about 10 months after I started taking it. But after they did my genotyping it was the right one for me so I continued with it and my numbers went back to normal quite fast. Think it may have been user error on my part I believe I did skip a few doses

Biktarvy is a widely used HIV treatment, and while most people tolerate it well, some may experience resistance to its components. Resistance can occur if the virus has mutations that make it less responsive to the medication. Your lab work will help determine if Biktarvy is effective for you. If resistance is detected, your doctor may recommend alternative treatments. It's great you're staying proactive—good luck with your labs!
