Great question before starting ART! Paracetamol (acetaminophen) is generally an option for occasional headaches. However, it's important to consult with your doctor before taking it, as some medications may not be completely safe depending on your specific situation. Once you start ART, pay attention to the following:

- If headaches occur when starting a new medication, notify your doctor immediately to assess whether the medication is the cause.

- Don't stop taking ART on your own, even if you experience side effects, as it continues to protect your health.

- Seek urgent medical attention if the headache is very severe and sudden, or is accompanied by confusion, difficulty speaking, or weakness on one side of the body.

Most importantly, maintain open communication with your doctor about any new symptoms. You're taking a big step by starting treatment! 💪

¡Buena pregunta antes de comenzar el TAR! El paracetamol (acetaminofeno) es generalmente una opción para los dolores de cabeza ocasionales. Sin embargo, es importante consultar con tu médico antes de tomarlo, ya que algunos medicamentos pueden no ser completamente seguros dependiendo de tu situación específica. Una vez que inicies el TAR, presta atención a lo siguiente:

- Si los dolores de cabeza aparecen al comenzar un nuevo medicamento, avisa a tu médico de inmediato para evaluar si el medicamento es la causa.
- No dejes de tomar el TAR por cuenta propia, incluso si experimentas efectos secundarios, ya que sigue protegiendo tu salud.
- Busca atención médica urgente si el dolor de cabeza es muy intenso y repentino, o viene acompañado de confusión, dificultad para hablar o debilidad en un lado del cuerpo.

Lo más importante es mantener una comunicación abierta con tu médico sobre cualquier síntoma nuevo. ¡Estás dando un gran paso al iniciar el tratamiento! 💪

What often times can help with side effects is drinking plenty of water💦 and also if the medication requires that you eat something with it make sure you’re not eating something That’s highly acidic like orange 🍊 juice, which can make the stomach full of acid and cause burning, 🥵 diarrhea and acid reflux. We have to ask a question what foods can be taken with your medication. For example when I was on Combivir, I could not use vinegar because it caused high acidity in my stomach. I hope this helps.🥰♥️🥰

Talk to your doctor or pharmacist they would be the ones who could best advise you on that.

Once you have a pharmacist, you could even ask him or her the question of what you could take for headaches. They’re usually trained about drug interactions.

The problem is being affiliated with public Social Security, because for a doctor to treat you just like that... anyway, I'll ask the doctor himself what I should do.

El problema es estar afiliado al Seguro Social publico, porque para que un doctor atienda así nomás...en fin le preguntaré al mismo médico qué debo hacer.

Everything sadly has a side effect, even aspirin. The key is to find the one your body accepts the most easily.
